Pranab Mukherjee arrives in Nagpur to attend RSS event
Former President Pranab Mukherjee arrived in Nagpur on Wednesday evening to attend a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) program here.
A controversy had erupted after Mukherjee had accepted an invite from the RSS to be the chief guest at its Tritiya Varsha Sangh Shiksha Varg’ (cadres training program) and address their workers at their headquarters in Nagpur.
Several Congress leaders urged him to reconsider his decision.

Senior Congress leader M. Veerappa Moily on Monday had said the attendance of former president Pranab Mukherjee in the RSS event will create an “undesirable difference” in the country.
Another leader, C. K. Jaffer Sharief, had written a letter on May 30 to Mukherjee requesting him to “reconsider and avoid visiting” the event.
The event will be held on June 7.
