NDA’s Presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday paid tribute to Swami Vivekananda in Kolkata. 

Droupadi paid homage to the statue of Swami Vivekananda at his ancestral residence in Kolkata. Meanwhile, Droupadi  also met West Bengal’s BJP chief and MP Sakanta Majumdar in Kolkata.

On Monday, Shiv Sena party chief Uddhav Thackeray called a party meeting on presidential elections and asked its MPs to support Murmu.  

“We discussed Droupadi Murmu (NDA’s Presidential candidate) in our meeting yesterday. Supporting Droupadi Murmu does not mean supporting BJP. Shiv Sena’s role will be clear in a day or two, party leader Uddhav Thackeray will make a decision,” said Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut. 

Moreover, ahead of the presidential elections, Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu is being visiting various states to seek the support of legislators. However, she has the support of the BJD, Akali Dal, and YSR congress. 

Earlier, on Friday, Uttar Pradesh’s Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath hosted a dinner party for NDA’s presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu at his official residence in Lucknow. 

The leaders like Samajwadi Party’s ally Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) chief Om Prakash Rajbha, SP Chief Akhilesh Yadav’s uncle and party MLA, Shivpal Yadav, along with Jansatta Dal Loktantrik founder Raghuraj Pratap Singh and Bahujan Samaj Party MLA in Uttar Pradesh, Uma Shankar Singh attended the dinner. 

Notably, the presidential elections will be conducted on July 18, 2022, against the opposition’s joint nominee Yashwant Sinha. If Murmu win the Presidential elections, she will be the first tribal President of India and the country’s second female President. Murmu is also a former Governor of Jharkhand and former minister of Odisha.
