15th Presidential election of India
would go down the wire was not a forgone conclusion; but, it gained currency
with the proposal of BJD supremo, backing the candidacy of
Sri P.A. Sangama which was later seconded by AIADMK Chief
and much later the principal opposition BJP and some NDA partners. Though,
Pranab Mukherjee is a potential candidate for the top job; however, in current
political situation a vote for UPA II Presidential nominee would be an
endorsement of a Govt. of under achiever and a vote for the policies pursued by
the Gov. for last three years which taxed poor people with high petroleum prices,
higher food inflation that removed very basic commodity out of reach of middle
class homes and subsequently for the humiliating depreciation of Indian rupee
which is dissipating Indian growth story. Therefore, the Electoral College for
Presidential election must exercise their conscience while voting.
