President Pranab

The privilege to become President of India, one can never miss.So is doing Pranab Mukherjee, former Finance minister of India.He has got the support of majority of UPA allies except Trinamool congress.At the same time the NDA partners also supporting him.In his 40 year political career he successfully maintained his importance at every position, both in party and in Government.Having his roots in a remote village of West Bengal e made himself a Political Icon of the Congress Party and emerged as a veteran politician.

He is now going to be conferred the biggest Office of the Nation.But there are people who also opposing his candidature for the Presidential Election.Veteran Lawyer Ramjeth Malani says that he cannot support a person who supported Emergency during the Prime Ministership of Indira Gandhi.Where as the representatives from Telangana of Andhrapradesh are against Pranab who is against Telangana Seperatehood.

At the same time NDA is outrightly against Pranab, alleging him for the worst economic conditions of Nation.This is the first time where opposition parties are not supporting the Presidential Candidate and these elections are going to be contested.Generally the presidential candidates are elected, when nominated, con sensually.

On the other hand, a former Speaker of Lok Sabha, Mr PA Sangma is contesting from NDA for the Post of President.He also dared to ask pranab for public debate. He is getting support of NDA parties and some other political players.He is also hopeful of win by a miracle.

But what happens in the next few days time will decide.At present we can say that the Bengali Babu Pranab may sweep the Presidential poll.But due to the cock fight between the Allied parties, has tarnished the image of Presidential Post.
