Pranab tells son, 'Go and meet opposition leaders'
April 29, 2013 16:21
Our sources in Delhi have these delightful details from the Central Hall of Parliament today.
President Pranab Mukherjee apparently asked his son Abhijit, a Congress MP (who coined the singularly famous term, 'dented and painted women'), where he sat in the Central Hall and told him to go around meet people, including Opposition leaders. He also asked Abhijit, how many books he had borrowed from the well-stocked library in Parliament. It is another matter, that Abhijit Mukherjee is 53 and not three.
The President then pointed out the seats where GK Moopanar used to sit, where Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi used to discuss the politics with senior Oppostion leaders. Abhijit tells our source, that he is still learning the ropes of being a Parliamentarian and reports to his father faithfully. It isn't difficult to understand why Pranab Mukherjee keeps his son on a tight leash after the MP's infamous comments during the December anti-rape protests in Delhi.
