Sixteen MPs of Shiv Sena, who attended a meeting called by former Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray in Mumbai today, asked that the party support NDA's Presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu. Sena MP Gajanan Kirtikar told NDTV after the meeting that all 16 MPs agreed that Draupadi Murmu "is a tribal woman and that's why they should vote for her". Maharashtra has a chunk of tribal population.
