Election for the Vice President scheduled to take place on Saturday will witness a fight between NDA nominee Jagdeep Dhankar and Opposition candidate Margaret Alva.
While the number jacks up in favour of the NDA candidate, Alva, a senior politician, has pitched for a conscious vote.
The voting will begin in Parliament House complex and MPs will cast their ballots.
