PM Modi and Amit Shah met the President.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah met President Draupadi Murmu separately at Rashtrapati Bhavan here on Sunday. The reason for the meeting of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister with the President has not been revealed yet. Rashtrapati Bhavan wrote on X that Prime Minister Narendra Modi met President Draupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Please tell that a few hours after PM Modi’s meeting with the President, Amit Shah also met Draupadi Murmu. Rashtrapati Bhavan posted on X and said that Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah met President Draupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Meeting President Draupadi Murmu
The Home Minister shared a picture of her meeting with Draupadi Murmu and wrote on ‘X’, ‘met President Draupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan.’ However, no statement has come from the Prime Minister’s Office so far. This was the first meeting with the President after PM Modi’s recent visit to Britain and Maldives.

Political speculation fast
These meetings have come at a time when the deadlock is going on in Parliament to demand the opposition to discuss the special intensive revision (SIR) of the voter list in the eastern state before the Bihar assembly elections. Apart from discussion in both houses on Operation Sindoor, there has been very little work in Parliament since the monsoon session started on July 21.
Apart from this, the Lok Sabha approved the extending President’s rule in Manipur for six months last week, while this proposal is yet to be discussed in the Rajya Sabha. President’s rule was imposed in this state of Northeast on 13 February.
Apart from this, Prime Minister Modi’s meeting with the President took place a few days after US President Donald Trump announced a 25 percent fee on exports from India and a few days after India announced a fine due to India buying military equipment and oil from Russia.
Means of meeting before Vice Presidential election
These meetings were held about two weeks after Jagdeep Dhankhar resigned from the post of Vice President on July 21, citing health reasons. The Election Commission announced last week that the election of the post of Vice President will be held on 9 September. Members of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha are eligible to vote in the Vice President’s election.
