Cold vibes between the Central government and the President can be sensed regarding the nomination of Rajya Sabha members. Sources say the prime minister himself was keen on nominating a news channel owner for the Upper House; the news channel is an expert at singing Modi’s praise. But the President’s opinion was clear on this one – no such person should be nominated to the Rajya Sabha who might have a legal case registered against him. The alternate name being proposed by the President is that of Anand Bazar Patrika’s owner Aveek Sarkar. It is being said that Modi isn’t agreeable to this idea, and nothing has been concluded so far.
