As Pranab Mukherjee is being widely seen as the Congress' presidential choice, Congress leader and minister in West Bengal Manas Bhuniya today appealed to Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee to support Mukherjee if the High Command makes him the candidate. "I would like to appeal to the top leader of the Trinamool Congress that she support Pranab babu if he is made the candidate for the President post by our party High Command," Bhuniya told newspersons here. On why he was making the appeal, Bhuniya said, "We are worried about the Trinamool Congress' non-committal attitude, it is significantly quiet in this matter." He noted that sometimes differences could be there among allies and coalition partners, but they should support each other on larger issues.
