hello,
I m developing the iOS application which contains the twitter
as one module. I wanted to know that does the Twitter provides the API
for following senario: Suppose user clicks on the " Patrent/Root/Main
" Tweet then I want all the "Child" tweets correspoding the " Patrent/
Root/Main " tweets. I observed this senario happens on the " Website "
but not on the authorized " Twitter iOS Application " .

Hi Samyag,
Replies are not the easiest things to get out of Twitter and there isn't an API method that will reliably do this for you. What you can do is follow the in_reply_to_status_id chain using the /1/statuses/show API request. This will allow you to trace a child Tweet back to it's parent(s).
Best,
