"No decision has been taken yet on the issue of Vice Presidential election. We will consider viewpoints of all opposition parties and will discuss it with our NDA allies," JD (U) chief Sharad Yadav told reporters here.
On whether it will favour a contest or support UPA's candidate, Yadav said, "We will wait for UPA to announce its candidate. How do you play football when there is no ball in the field."
He said that he had spoken to JD(U) leader and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today morning on the issue and the matter will be discussed within the party before taking any decision.
"It will not be good to speculate about our decision. We have yet not decided anything," Yadav said.
In an apparent division of opinion within NDA on the Presidential poll issue, JD(U) has supported UPA nominee Pranab Mukherjee for the country's top job.
But Yadav has been denying reports of any rift within the opposition coalition on this issue.

"All the money received in these two Hindu temples is a public money and it should be taken over by the Indian government and used for improvement of all Hindu religion pilgrimage places in the country," he said.
