Vice President Hamid Ansari today received a special gift -- a horse -- from Mongolian President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj which the Indian leader decided to name "All Done", the first few words uttered by his grandchild.

The horse was gifted to Ansari over a year after Prime Minister Narendra Modi was presented with a brown horse named 'Kanthaka' by the then Mongolian Premier Chimed Saikhanbileg during his visit to the country in May last year.

"The Vice President was gifted a horse by the President of Mongolia and he has decided to name it 'All Done', Preeti Saran, Secretary (East) in the Ministry of External Affairs, told reporters.
 

"There is a story to it. His young grandchild has just started speaking and this was one of those words he has uttered. The Vice President thought that it was a good way to name a beautiful gift from the government of Mongolia," she said.
