Dismissing UIImagePickerController resets UITabBarController to 0 index - iOS

I have 4 tabs in my UITabBarController and I present UIImagePickerController from the 4th ViewController in my tabBar. (All the tabs viewControllers are embedded in UINavigationController)

When my UIImagePickerController is dismissing from my 4th tab, whether after selecting an image or just cancelling the picker, it takes me back to my first tab (0 index).

It should stay to my 4th tab viewController. Why is this happening? I have searched all in the code and there's no where I have mentioned tabBarController.setSelectedIndex = 0;

This is my code to present the UIImagePickerController and dismiss it:

- (void)takeNewPhotoFromCamera
{
    if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable: UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera])
    {
        UIImagePickerController *controller = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
        controller.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
        controller.allowsEditing = NO;
        //controller.mediaTypes = [UIImagePickerController availableMediaTypesForSourceType: UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
        controller.delegate = self;
        [self presentViewController: controller animated: YES completion: nil];

    }
}

- (void) imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
{
    [picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
    [picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];  
}

Please help.

Thanks!

Just found the solution by setting the image picker's modalPresentationStyle to OverCurrentContext :

UIImagePickerController *controller = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
controller.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
controller.allowsEditing = NO;
controller.delegate = self;
controller.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverCurrentContext; //This is the magical line
[self presentViewController: controller animated: YES completion: nil];
