Uddhav to back NDA's Murmu in Prez polls
Shiv Sena will support NDA’s Presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu, party president Uddhav Thackeray said on Tuesday.
Mumbai: Shiv Sena will support NDA's Presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu, party president Uddhav Thackeray said on Tuesday.
Thackeray said Sena is announcing support to Murmu without any pressure. "Nobody pressured me in the meeting of Sena MPs," he added. "Tribal leaders of my party told me that this was the first time that a tribal woman is getting the chance to become the President," he said.
"Actually, going by the present political atmosphere, I should not have backed her. But we are not narrow-minded," he said. Sena MP Sanjay Raut said Shiv Sena had earlier backed UPA presidential nominees like Pratibha Patil and Pranab Mukherjee.
"The Sena has the tradition of going beyond politics. We believe in backing people in the national interest," he said.
