| Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and other leaders on Wednesday greeted President Pratibha Patil on her 73rd birthday.
The prime minister along with his wife Gursharan Kaur met the President and presented her a bouquet of roses and wished her on her birthday.
The two leaders spent nearly 10 minutes. Later, the President went to a place allotted for the 'Nakshatra garden' where she planted the sapling of a 'jamun' tree. The garden will have 27 trees named after every star in the constellation.
Born on December 19, 1934 in Nadgaon village of Jalgaon district in Maharashtra, Patil has the rare distinction of being the first woman President of the country.
