Pranab Mukherjee - a former President, the man who missed becoming the Prime Minister of India by a whisker, the Congress party`s trouble-shooter during the UPA rule and the unlikely Congressman with proximity to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. On his birthday, we look back at his illustrious career. Pics/AFP 

Former President Pranab Mukherjee is a name synonym to Indian politics. From working as a clerk to teaching Political Science to college students; from managing by-election campaign to becoming the 13th President of India and being conferred with Bharat Ratna, Pranab da as he was fondly called truly etched a name for himself in the history of Indian politics. A "man for all seasons", Pranab Mukherjee, who passed away on August 31, 2020, was in true sense the "crisis man" of India. Here's a tribute to the original "Dada" of politics.
