A
Correct answer
Explanation
In 2002, the BJP-led NDA alliance unanimously nominated Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam for the Presidential election, which he won. This was a rare consensus decision supported by opposition parties as well. The Congress party eventually supported his candidacy, but the nomination originated from the BJP and its allies. CPM and DMK were not the primary nominating parties.
