“I come from a political family. My father was a freedom fighter. He was a prominent leader of the locality and member of the Congress party. He spent 10 years in British prisons.

So politics was not unfamiliar to me.” YearsPoliticalUsedFatherRoomsPartyLeaderSubjectsMembersPrisonCongressBritishFighterEveningLiving RoomUnfamiliarProminentFreedom FighterLocalityCongress Party Author:Pranab Mukherjee
