Now, we're all 'Hari bharose': PM on Harivansh

NEW DELHI: After NDA candidate Harivansh Narayan Singh was elected new Rajya Sabha (RS) deputy chairman on Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "now, we are all Hari 'bharose'" (Now, we all depend on Hari).

The PM was full of praise for the new RS deputy chairman - a former journalist - and also said he was a favourite of former PM Chandra Shekhar.

"He (Harivansh) has been blessed with the talent of writing. He was also a favourite of former PM Chandra Shekhar ji," said Modi.

The reason Harivansh was a "favourite" of Chandra Shekhar was that despite being close to him, he didn't revel when the then PM was going to tender his resignation.
The BJP-led NDA's candidate Hwas on Thursday elected new RS deputy chairman with 125 votes. The UPA's candidate, Congress MP BK Hariprasad, got 105 votes.
Harivansh is a JD(U) Parliamentarian from Bihar.
