| The UPA's candidate for the next President could be decided on Monday.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is expected to meet Congress President Sonia Gandhi to zero in on the UPA's choice for the top job.
The move comes ahead of the UPA-Left coordination meeting expected later this week.
Union Home Minister Shivraj Patil is still the frontrunner and UPA ally and NCP chief Sharad Pawar has already clarified that his party is not opposed to Patil's candidature. The others in the race are:
UPA allies, including the Left, to support Congress candidate or someone chosen by them
Mayawati's BSP likely to go with UPA candidate
NDA yet to announce its official candidate, likely to support BS Shekhawat as an Independent candidate
Support of the third front formed by eight parties like TDP, AIADMK, SP, among others, is crucial. There are indications that the third front may support Shekhawat's Independent candidature.
