A few days ago, then vice-presidential candiate Venkaiah Naidu spoke at the inauguration of a memorial for former president APJ Abdul Kalam in Rameshwaram in Tamil Nadu.

Staying true to his love for acronyms, Venkaiah Naidu said APJ Abdul Kalam stands for 'Anything is Possible with Just Attitude and Karma'.

The Vice-President elect, who once described himself as Usha-pati, has preserved his best for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

For Venkaiah Naidu, the Prime Minister is Maker of Developed India; MODI is also Making of Developed India and Modifier of Developing India.

Taking a swipe at political rivals who blamed electronic voting machines (EVMs) in the wake of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election results, Venkaiah Naidu said that for such people EVM is 'Every Vote Modi'.

Venkaiah Naidu, who was the Union Minister for Urban Development, Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, gave a new definition to city during a conclave in Mumbai. CITY stands for 'Civic Infrastructure To You', the then Union minister said.

Venkaiah Naidu also has something for youngsters. While speaking at a function at Shri Ram College of Commerce in Delhi University, Venkaiah Naidu coined an acronym for YOUNG--You Owe U and Nation Greatness.
