'Wait, wait, wait!' Prez tell Narayanasamy

New Delhi: Wait wait wait! This is what Puducherry MP V Narayanasamy had to hear from President Pratibha Patil when he jumped the gun and began taking oath himself.

Amid laughter from all those present, a sheepish Narayanasamy, 61, proceeded to take oath as a Minister of State after the customary prompting by the President.

Trinamool MP from Dum Dum Saugat Roy was the next in line when he proceeded with the oath taking without the prompting from the President.

In the last round of swearing in on May 22, Union Minister Kamal Nath was the man in a hurry, beginning the oath himself before the customary prompting from the President.
