On Tuesday, Om Birla, the Member of Parliament from Kota, had a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This meeting has sparked speculations that he will once again be chosen as the ruling National Democratic Alliance's candidate for the prestigious position of Lok Sabha Speaker.
According to sources within the NDA, Birla is the most likely candidate for the Speaker of the 18th Lok Sabha. It is also being reported that the opposition may not put forward their own candidate, which would result in Birla getting elected unopposed.
There is a strong belief that the opposition may choose to go for the Deputy Speaker's position instead. This move would allow the NDA's nominee to be elected without any opposition.
Birla's re-election as the MP from Kota in Rajasthan, makes him the first presiding officer to be re-elected to the Lower House in the last 20 years. This is a remarkable achievement and showcases his popularity among the people.
These developments have been reported by PTI, and it remains to be seen if Birla will indeed be chosen as the NDA's candidate for the Lok Sabha Speaker's post.
