KT Rama Rao has already left for Delhi. Other TRS MPs would also be attending Sinha’s nomination filing today. Notably, KCR skipped the two meeting by the Opposition parties’ meeting convened by Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee and Nationalist Congress Part (NCP) president Sharad Pawar in Delhi to decide their joint candidate for the presidential elections. Pawar, however, confided later that KCR had agreed to support Yashwant Sinha when he called him up to extend the invitation. The presidential poll is scheduled to be held on 18 July and the result will be declared on July 21. President Ram Nath Kovind’s term end on 24 July. The BJP-led NDA has announced Droupadi Murmu as its candidate for the post.
