The largest democracy got its 15th President on 25 July 2022.
What comes to your mind
when you think of the new President?
First “Tribal President”?
“Second Woman President
of India”?
“Tribal Woman President”?
President Droupadi Murmu is much more.
Murmu Madam is not just representative of the 8.6 % tribal population
of India, or the 48.46% female population of India (Figures as per the 2011
Census); rather she is India’s President.
In the nation where a Chaiwala
is the Prime Minister, the President is this self-made citizen belonging to “the
poorest of the poor family” from a “small village”, and ex-Teacher, Councillor,
MLA, Minister, and Governor!
