India is all set have Presidential elections next month and contest gets interesting with every single move of political parties.
Indian political parties are toiling it out hard this time for their choice of candidate to be elected as Indian President. Till now there were only three or four candidates that were being discussed but this evening something happened that made this race more interesting. Now along with much discussed A P J Abdul kalaam, Hamid Ansari, P A Sangma and Pranab Mukharji there are few surprising names that have been proposed by UPA Supporters. Today Mamta Benerji and Mulayam Yadav announced in a joint press conference their set of possible candidates and they are- 1) A Kalaam, 2)Manmohan Singh and 3) Somnath Chetterji.
While two names proposed are understandable, the name of current Prime Minister is a bid surprise even for Manmohan himself(I Guess). Is it in any way possible practically for a Prime Minister to give up his office and leave his already struggling government in all sorts of dangers. Or is it time that they give their future leader (Rahul Gandhi) a short training session from 2012 to 2014? This was the question being asked to most congressies during Prime time discussions.
As far as I know this is not what Rahul would be prepared for, he won't like to carry the baggage of all that this government had earned in last couple of years. This could further dampen the 2014 party performance.
With opposition and some bigger players like DMK still silent over the issue, may be there are still few more surprises in store for us. They too can come up with a new name to complicate things even further. Let us wait and see them come out with their strategy. Who knows if they come up with Anna Hazarey?
