'The next President of the Republic will most probably be a Hindu' (4 Nov. 2019)

'The next President of the Republic will most probably be a Hindu' 

 

Facebook, 4 November 2019

 

On 14 November 2019, I said on Facebook that "the next President of the Republic will most probably be a Hindu". I was referring, of course, to Mauritius. While most of the Mauritian Press, observers and commentators of the Mauritian political scene were arguing more for a Muslim to become the new President, I said that s/he will most probably be a Hindu and it will not be former National Assembly Speaker, Maya Hanoomanjee. 

 

On 2 December 2019, the Mauritius National Assembly voted for Prithvirajsing Roopun GCSK, also known as Pradeep Roopun, to become the 7th President of the Republic of Mauritius. I were among the very rare ones on Facebook, at least, to have said so.
