Murmu is the second woman and first tribal President of the country. The Congress did not support her candidature at the time of the election and backed Yashwant Sinha, the joint opposition candidate.
Sonia Gandhi paid a visit to President Murmu amidst the ongoing internal differences in the Congress party. Recently, Congress senior leader Anand Sharma announced his resignation from the chairmanship of the party’s steering committee for the state, saying he was left with no choice after the continuing exclusion and insults.
Meanwhile, the AICC in charge of Himachal Pradesh, Rajeev Shukla was sent to pacify him. After his meeting with Anand Sharma, Shukla traveled to Delhi to meet Sonia Gandhi.
