By tradition, the Presidential election begins after a
candidate is officially nominated at the national convention. Before the
candidate is officially nominated at the national convention, he or she can
unofficially continue the campaign process, but it would be of no importance if
he or she does not get nominated in the national council. It is a tradition
that after the completion of the national council, the selected candidates start
their campaign from the month of November. It has been seen that several
candidates start seeking money for the campaign long before the completion of
the national convention.
