Who was the first unopposed candidate to be elected Vice president of India?

This question first appeared in the "US Presidents" category, but it is doubtful that is where it belongs. No US vice president has ever been elected to an office in India. As far as vice presidents of India are concerned, 7 men who served as Vice President of India later became President or Acting President (one of the was both an Acting President and then later the elected President): Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan served as vice president under the first president of India, Rajendra Prasad and was elected as India's second president after Radhakrishnan retired. Zakir Hussain served as vice president under Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan and was elected president when Radhakrishnan left office. Varahagiri Venkata Giri served as vice president under Zakir Hussain and was appointed acting president upon Husain's death. He resigned the office a few months later to take part in the presidential elections and was elected president 2 months later. Basappa Danappa Jatti was the vice president of India during President Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed's term of office, and was sworn in as acting president upon Ahmed's death. Ramaswamy Venkataraman served as vice president under President Giani Zail Singh and was subsequently elected as the next president after Singh. Shankar Dayal Sharma served as vice president under President Ramaswamy Venkataraman and was subsequently elected as the next president after Venkataraman. Kocheril Raman Narayanan served as vice president under President Shankar Dayal Sharmaand was subsequently elected as the next president after Sharma.
