Former vice-president of India, M Venkaiah Naidu, now retired from active politics, has prescribed four 'Cs' --character, calibre, capacity and conduct--to be a successful leader and lawmaker. He said some intelligent people, who have replaced these with "caste, community, criminality and cash" should not be allowed to be successful. He also told the 1,500 all party legislators at the first National Legislators’ Conference Bharat (NLC Bharat), that they should treat one another as rivals not enemies.

At the Jio Centre, BKC, on Saturday, the BJP leader-turned-VP, Naidu, was joined in the session "Tale of the tall" by former president of Central Tibetan Administration, Dr Lobsang Sangay, former MP Brinda Karat, former Maharashtra CM Prithviraj Chavan, Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot and prime minister of Ireland, Leo Varadkar  (the last three speakers came online).
