The former president APJ Abdul Kalam and two other names cause stir
along with two names of Congress make the choice expand to five.With PM
opting for President candidate, in-fight to intensify in Congress for
three post as FM moves to PM and other ministerial fill the gap.All
three probables are politically suave.
TMC and SP, shot a political googly by suggesting Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh, former president APJ Abdul Kalam and
former Lok Sabha speaker Somnath Chatterjee are the three people
favoured by the Mulayam Singh's of Samajwadi Party (SP) and Mamata
Banerjee of the Trinamool Congress to be
India's next president. On Sonia Gandhi's suggestions, the allies said
that they wanted the president to be chosen with consensus.Mamata
Banerjee today met Congress President Sonia Gandhi earlier in the
day and annouced that Sonia Gandhi suggested the names of Hamid Ansari
and Pranab Mukherjee as possible candidates for the post of
President.Congress president Sonia Gandhi today made it clear that
finance
minister Pranab Mukherjee was her first choice for presidency and
Vice-President Hamid Ansari was also in the reckoning.
