President Pranab Mukherjee
New Delhi: Taking a trip down the memory lane, President Pranab Mukherjee on Friday said he was an “unparalleled naughty boy” who used to trouble his mother, as he credited her for all the success he has achieved.
“My best teacher was my mother. As I have said I was an unparalleled naughty boy. I was a trouble for my mother... after a day;s of mischief and other things, I used to receive a good deal of thrashing from her.
“And after that she used to come and fondle me with all love and care and ask me what I had done from the sunrise to sunset, which I had to tell in a chronological order,” Mr Mukherjee, who asked the students to call him as Mukherjee Sir told students of Classes XI and XII at a school in the Rashtrapati Bhavan Estate.
“I must tell you that your mother is best teacher,” he said. The President said he used to accompany the boys of his village, who went with cow herds. “But, as the sun would appear to set, I used to rush back home as I was mortally afraid of darkness despite being a village boy,” Mukherjee admitted.
