The nominations of all presidential candidates, barring those of NDA nominee Ram Nath Kovind and Opposition-backed Meira Kumar, were rejected on Thursday.
About 95 persons had filed their nominations, including Kumar and Kovind. Except the two main contenders, the nominations of the rest were rejected as none of them were proposed and backed by the required number of members of the electoral college, according to Lok Sabha secretariat sources.
