New Delhi, Jan 7 (IANS) Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi Wednesday presented his Nobel Peace Prize to President Pranab Mukherjee, an official statement said, adding that the medal would be displayed in the Rashtrapati Bhavan Museum.
Speaking on the occasion, Mukherjee said he was "very happy" that Sathyarthi received the prize. He said the "medal will soon be kept on display in the Rashtrapati Bhavan Museum".
