Presidential Polls-Pranab Leading Candidate

Pranab Mukharji finally got his name proposed by UPA chairperson Soniya Gandhi for upcoming Presidential Polls. With this the three day long chaos of naming a candidate and supporting him reached a stage where Pranab is now expected to come out victorious.
 The 4:00 PM meeting was thus a successfull one for Congress as one of their main opponents changed mind and decided to support UPA candidate. Mulayam had already indicated his will to support UPA nominee indirectly and he did that. With SP party supporting UPA there is little or no chance for any other candidate to contest and win the polls.
  TMC supremo Mamta Benerji is still claiming to have a few cards up-sleeves and said the game has not ended yet and it is just a beginning. But mathematically even she might be aware of the fact that UPA has got there candidate through to the Riasena Hills.
 The opposition had already stated that they would be waiting for UPA to declare first and have not till now given there view about Pranab's name. Now with Pranab's  name being almost a winner there is possibility of NDA giving him unanimous victory and may be in turn have their candidate(if any) be selected as vice-President. Tomorrow is yet again an important day for these Presidential Polls as NDA and AIDMK are supposed to decide their way-forward.
