Why Did BJP Pick Draupadi Murmu?
- Murmu took her baby steps while struggling with poverty in one of the most remote and underdeveloped districts of the country. Murmu, a grassroots politician, has many firsts to her credit. She was the first woman and tribal leader from Odisha to be appointed as governor of any state.
- She served as the governor of Jharkhand from 2015 to 2021, the first governor to complete the term in the state. She was also in consideration for the presidential post in 2017 but later Ramnath Kovind made the cut.
- The BJP’s move to name Murmu as its presidential candidate comes ahead of assembly elections in Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh. The four states have 128 seats reserved for scheduled Tribes of which the BJP had won just 35 seats in the last assembly elections
