"Now I am not an illegitimate son, I have the right to use the Congress leader’s surname." said Rohit Shekhar
“This day, I have unburdened the decades-old load of agony from my head,” said Rohit Shekhar reacting to the DNA test report that declared him the biological son of senior Congress leader N.D. Tiwari.
Talking to reporters outside the Delhi High Court on Friday, Mr. Shekhar said he had moved the court only after Mr. Tiwari refused to own that he was his son despite long years of persuasion by him, his mother and other family members.
The 32-year-old advocate said the test report had raised the esteem of his mother, late maternal grandfather and former Minister of State for Defence Sher Singh, and grandmother.
Mr. Shekhar, however, said the battle had not ended but had begun. “Now I am not an illegitimate son, I have the right to use the Congress leader’s surname.”
His mother Ujjwala Sharma said the truth had won and the lie had been nailed. She said it was not the defeat of any individual but of the lie.
“Don’t make it an issue”
PTI reports from Dehra Dun:
In Dehra Dun, Mr. Tiwari said no one should make an issue of the paternity suit episode. He had the right to live on his own terms and he bore no grudge against Rohit.
Mr. Tiwari did not face the media that had assembled outside his home for his reaction to the court ruling, but released a statement through one of his aides. The former Andhra Pradesh Governor said he would always respect the decision of the judiciary.
“Due to my simplicity, at this point of my age, people I trusted conspired against me... I hold no grudge against them. My sympathy is with Rohit Shekhar.”

Yes, Mr Tiwari is correct in saying that he is above science &
Technology all others are fool here.
Internal matter of family should be solved internally but court must
take stringent actions for public money being involved in it. <
I think Rohit was better without the name he fought to acquire! When he knew who his father was, silence was a more graceful option. For Mr Tiwary, proper economic package with consent to let Rohit use his name was a wiser proposition. Mr Tiwary, well-exposed for his adventures in bed room (rightly called private by him), is not the lone practitioner of this profession that warrants so much attention. It is just that he is not as clever as other practitioners. Let the parties settle this issue privately. Why wash the linen from night's adventures in public, unless it was a forced act for one participant?
Our sympathies are with Madam Ujjawala Sharma M/O mr.Rohit Shekar. Why she was keeping quiet for 32 years patiently bearing all insults and ignominy that should have been leveled against her by the Indian society . As soon as she conceived and gave birth to Rohit she should have declared publicly who is the father of the Child.we are wonder struck as to why Rohit's maternal grandfather who was holding the position of Minister of State for Defense was also keeping quiet all these years! Mr.Tiwary's debut as Governor of Andhra Pradesh is well known.He was found to be in a compromising position with call girls in Raj Bhavan and was sent out of Karnataka State. It is a shame on the part of Congress party.All the privileges given to this sex raver as Freedom Fighter and pension given to him as Ex-Governor should be withdrawn and he should be put behind the bars so that this ape gland nonagenarian will not further damage the Society and spoil the image of Congress Of Ghandhi & Motilal Nehru
Hats off to Rohit. Tiwari wasted so much of public money with his lies. While he is the father he should have had the courage to acknowledge and closed the matter much earlier and had some peace of mind for Rohit and his family and Tiwari himself as well. This is a sad example of someone wears a Gandhi topi and lies where as Gandhi preached and practiced " Be truthful"
Rohit, you are the courageous biological son of a shameless
irresponsible politician who was holding so many responsible posts.
Every Indian should be grateful to you for opening their eyes. Thanks to
you and advancement of Medical Science.
One should have the courage to admit the truth which Mr Tiwari did not have.God sees but waits has proven to be true in this case.Hats off to Rohit.
An Inspiration!! Atlast... How ever powerful and rich the opponent is, their s always a way for truth. All we need is belief, determination and patience... After all the basics on which Indian System is built is correct indeed, may be slow but not crude!!!
When people occupying high positions lie, imagine the fate of our nation. If this scum can lie about his son will he hesitate to sell the country?
Indians have resigned to their fate!!! Jai ho!
The one found , there may be many unknown and hidden and forgotten
sons and daughters of many politicians in INDIA. how shameful that
people have to prove the fathers.
DNA sample has matched, this proves that ND Tiwari is Rohit's biological
father, but the fact still remains that of legitimacy...
Neither Rihit nor his mother has still not been embraced by ND Tiwari.
So the Question of legitimacy does not arise.. ?
This person has one more sex scandal being "governor"....my god congress
has such leaders they can defend all dirts of the soceity.
Indians will make his son(rohit) minister in next election (our people
are so kind at heard with less sense), thats the happy end of the story
(morality already dead india)
Brave Boy.
The true hard core Gandhian has been exposed in true colors... Cheers
Mr. Rohit..
If Mr. N D Tiwari had committed perjury he should be put in jail for the
rest of his life. This should be a lesson to all the high & mighty.
After all these years refusals and denial why Mr. Rohit Shekhar use
Tiwari as his last name? He must use his mother's last name with pride.
Kudos to Rohit Shekhar. Keep up your fighting spirit.The octogenerian veteran congress leader who adorn so many important chairs like Governor, Chief Minister and Central Cabinet Minister, deserving due punishment for lying and denying paernity of his biological son for such a long period. How many hundreds of Rohit Shekhars are now living in India without proper courage to fight against their powerful fathers to get their paternity proved. Our politicians morality is very poor, sorry pathetic. The following statement best suited about them. " DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE FACE I WEAR, AS I WEAR A THOUSAND MASK AND NONE OF THEM ARE ME".
