PM's daughter to write 'biography' of parents

Daman Singh, the writer daughter of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, is planning to write a book about her parents which will "explore the experiences that make them what they are".

"I see this (the book) as a way to try and understand them as individuals, not merely as my parents," says Daman, the second of Singh's three daughters.

For Daman, whose second novel "The Sacred Grove" released last week, her father is her favourite politician. "I admire his integrity the most," she told PTI in an interview.

Asked whether her father reads her books, she says, "We are three sisters, and all three of us have written books. My father has certainly read portions of them, but he does not have time to read them from cover to cover. I am quite sure he thinks our work is wonderful. Of course, he is biased."
