Amid the grand opening ceremony of the new parliament building in New Delhi on Sunday, a lighthearted moment unfolded when Union Minister Smriti Irani and G Kishan Reddy snuck into the frame as the photographer was clicking Home Minister Amit Shah.
Ms Irani shared the image on Twitter, with the caption, "Photo bombed — ! When everyone wants to be a part of the ‘main frame'."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday inaugurated the new Parliament building on Sunday morning and installed the historic Sengol in the Lok Sabha chamber.
In his first address in the new parliament, PM Modi said as India surges ahead, the new parliament building will also contribute to the world's progress.
"Some moments in the developmental journey of a nation get immortalised, today is one such day...The new Parliament complex will witness the realisation of our 'developed India' resolution," the PM said.
