Former Rajasthan Governor Margaret Alva filed her nomination papers for the Vice-Presidential (VP) elections on Tuesday, the last day for the exercise, while in the presence of senior political leaders.
Speaking to reporters, Ms. Alva said. “I have spent my life fulfilling my commitments, with integrity and courage. Elections don’t frighten me - winning and losing is a part of life. However, it is my belief that the goodwill, trust and affection of members across party lines in both houses of Parliament, that I’ve earned, will see me through and continue to guide me as one who works to bring people together to find common solutions, and helps build a strong and united India.”
