    Morphed-photo of Pranab surfaces, daughter Sharmistha says 'told you so'
  • Soon after former President Pranab Mukherjee attended the RSS's Tritiya Varsh Training programme in Nagpur on Thursday, a morphed picture of him doing the RSS-style salute surfaced on social media.

    This prompted his daughter and Congress leader Sharmistha Mukherjee to pen her thoughts on Twitter. She quipped this was the very reason she didn't want him to attend the event.

    Here are more details.
