                    [Summary] => 

NEW DELHI (AFP) - Indian lawmakers looked set to elect on Thursday the country's first ever woman president after the most contentious contest in six decades of independence.

Backed by the ruling Congress coalition, Pratibha Patil, 72, was expected to be a shoo-in to succeed popular missile scientist Abdul Kalam as president in the secret vote by an electoral college of state and federal lawmakers, analysts said.

But the campaign has been marked by vitriolic exchanges over Patil's fitness to hold the job, which is largely ceremonial.
