On Board Special Aircraft:
For Rajya Sabha MP Tiruchi Siva, it was a moment of a lifetime, with none other than Vice-President Hamid Ansari singing the birthday song as he cut a cake at an altitude of 35,000 feet.
Siva, who is part of Ansari's delegation on a two-nation visit, celebrated his 54th birthday while
travelling onboard the Vice President's aircraft on Sunday.
"I felt privileged when the honourable Vice-President sang 'happy birthday to you' for me. It is really a rare occasion for anyone," Siva told PTI.
The delegation began its two-nation six-day tour of Czech Republic and Croatia today.
The three-time MP from Tamil Nadu cut a two kg cake onboard brought out by the Air India staff in the presence of Ansari, his wife Salma, Minister of State for Communication Sachin Pilot, his Parliamentarian colleagues Prasanta Chatterjee, Maya Singh and Mohammad Azharuddin and other officials.
"I will remember this birthday forever," a visibly pleased Siva, who represents the DMK, said.
