Thought of day 

President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Who to be the right choice for President of India!

 President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam (Others & overwhelming love and affection of people from all sections of society and from all parts of the country)
Versus
Ms Pratibha Patil (Congress president Sonia Gandhi) etc. 

Under the changed circumstances and eroded position of Congress in India, Sonia ji is not in position to show and repeat the past ‘Charisma of Indra ji’ in the forthcoming election for the post of President of India. It is not so easy ignoring others and overwhelming love and affection of people expressed from all sections of society and from all parts of the country for the present President A P J Abdul Kalam. 

It seems also to be totally a different case than the case of Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh ji when no single leader is acceptable so far except him. Nehru family has lost long back, the old image to rule India single handedly. Moreover, whether rightly or wrongly, Sonia ji do possess and have impression of a foreigner in the minds of Indian leadership. 

The already expressed views of mine may bear fruit and President A P J Abdul Kalam is likely to be elected for second term. The ‘Electoral System’ for the post, most likely to put forward the sense of independence in everyone matter while casting vote under the constitution, to enhance the prestige of India regarding the choice of top and No. 1 citizen said to be always neutral to safeguard the independent opinion of people and the  protector of the Indian Constitution.

A View

Sir,

Whosoever is likely to be misused less as a ‘Rubber Stamp’ in the prevailing corrupt and spoiled system can perform better with the assistance of the experts of various fields. In view of this, Dr A P J Abdul Kalam is better choice again for the post of President of India.
