Sharmistha Mukherjee @Sharmistha_GK reacts to Subramanian Swamy's advice on coexistence despite differing opinions with her father, Pranab Mukherjee. 

"Exactly! That's how I grew up, & that's why I don't have any problem expressing my differences with him on issues even in public. We are a democratic, argumentative family; & I learnt this from my father only," Sharmishtha Mukherjee tweeted.


Swamy had said, "This is something you must grow up to. My own daughter doesn't agree with my views and I don't agree with hers. But we are a happy family. We must learn that individuals have opinions."


Former President Pranab Mukherjee spoke at the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh headquarters in Nagpur, last evening and said that attempts to define Indias nationhood on the basis of religion would dilute our nationality.


Ahead of his speech, Sharmishtha had cautioned her father saying, ""Hope @CitiznMukherjee now realises from today's incident, how BJP dirty tricks dept operates. Even RSS wouldnt believe that u r going 2 endorse its views in ur speech. But the speech will be forgotten, visuals will remain & those will be circulated with fake statements.

"@CitiznMukherjee By going 2 Nagpur, u r giving BJP/RSS full handle 2 plant false stories, spread falls rumours as 2day & making it somewhat believable. And this is just d beginning!," she added.
