President Pranab Mukherjee not to vote in ongoing LS polls

He is a registered voter in 160 Rashbehari, part of South Kolkata parliamentary seat.

The decision was taken for maintaining the tradition as most of his predecessors had done the same, Rajamony said.

South Kolkata will see a multi-cornered contest with Congress fielding Mala Roy and BJP nominating state president Tathagata Roy.

Trinamool Congress has fielded sitting MP Subrata Bakshi whereas CPM's candidate is professor Nandini Mukherjee.
