During his recent visit to Kolkata, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee twisted the ear of a photojournalist because he had pushed him. When he returned to Delhi after the incident, he was amused to see photographers obediently standing in a line in front of Parliament building gate, leaving enough space for Mukherjee to walk in.
While many wondered why the finance minister lost his cool, Mukherjee offers simple logic: “How can you push me If you want to take my photo?”
