I have always been and will be a firm BJP supporter, however I sincerely feel selection of Pratibha Patil as the President is the best thing to happen. There is nothing Marathi about it.
I have a firm belief that Pratibha Tai will prove to be the most efficient President that India has ever seen, far better than Dr. Abdul Kalam. Remember, there were several congress contenders loyal to Gandhi Nahru family, but why only she got the opportunity? Just because of her own merits, she has risen from ranks.
She is a traditional aristocratic Hindu women who never fails to cover her head with pallu, however her thoughts are revolutionary and she is always firm in her decisions. She had been a great social worker and established several educational institutions in Jalgaon. Please dont make fun of her spiritual powers they are in line with Hindu belief and traditions and make her more powerful and strong.
Just wait and watch, she wont be just puppet of Sonia Gandhi. She will nurture the nation like her own child and after 5 years from now India will sing its glory in favor of Honble Pratibha tai.
