@Ritu - Do you realize that you cannot just convert a given binary tree into right-threaded binary tree? You need at least 1 bit information at each node to specify whether the right pointer of that node is a regular pointer or pointer to the inorder successor. This is because traversal is done

Not correct. You cannot assume that the right node always points to the successor. If you do that, your traversal will be affected. Consider that when you reach a node B from the right pointer of its parent A, you traverse that subtree rooted at B in normal inorder. However, when you reach B from
