BELATED BIRTHDAY

-

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh didn’t celebrate his birthday on September 26 as he was on his way to Washington from Frankfurt. So a belated birthday card from the journalist­s accompanyi­ng him was finally handed to him on October 7. Quite unlike his colleague Kumari Selja, Union minister for social justice and empowermen­t. In New York to represent India at the United Nations Forum on Disability and Developmen­t on September 24, she got a call from the Indian ambassador to the UN. Selja was informed that a group of disabled children wanted to meet her. When she said yes, the children entered her room singing Happy Birthday. Sweet.
