Opportunity for politicians to save face


The most apt person who deserves to occupy Raisina Hills is former President, the missile man Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, who hit India’s wagon of glory to a star. This is not a one-off opinion but the opinion of majority people of India. It is a sorry portrait to see that politicians need their pal to occupy at Rashtrapati  Bahavan.

The Opposition NDA  and the Left should not allow the Congress to elect unopposed their candidate. If so what is fun in saying a creative Opposition. They should field their own candidate or should support Dr Kalam. An atmosphere for open election without party whip should be created and the MPs and MLAs should be asked to vote at their judgment.  Then one could see who would be elected, Dr Kalam or Pranab Mukherji. 
At least in one aspect Kalam would not expend abundantly from state exchequer for foreign trips as his family is very small consisting of himself and two suitcases.  The politicians of India losing trustworthiness among common man could sensibly save their face by electing Dr Kalam as next President of India.
