Excellent and wise decision. It would have been more excellent had he not succumbed to the dubious combination UNPA a cluster of defeated politicians trying to stage a come back by any means.
Observe the stand of NDA. When the UNPA proposed your name they threw Mr. Shekawat, their candidate in to dust bin. Where as UPA stood solidly behind their candidate. Not a single person or pary altered their stand whether it is good or bad. I think Mr.Kalam observed this difference.
