Sushma skips oath ceremony

Lest it is interpreted mischievously, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj went on Twitter to explain her absence from the oath-taking ceremony of some Union Cabinet ministers at the Durbar Hall in Rashtrapati Bhavan at 11 am on Tuesday. She tweeted that she couldn't make it because of a meeting with the visiting foreign minister of Hungary. Swaraj also took a dig at the media. She tweeted, "Media, please avoid the headline: Sushma skips oath ceremony." She then also tweeted her photograph with the Hungarian foreign minister.
