Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Afghan President Ghani Serve 'Langar' At Golden Temple Saturday Dec 03,2016


On the sidelines of the ongoing Heart of Asia-Istanbul Process conference in Punjab's Amritsar town, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani on Saturday Dec 03,2016 served 'langar' at the Golden Temple.

Both Prime Minister Modi and Afghanistan President Ghani walked through the renovated heritage corridor of the historic temple soon after arriving in Amritsar.

Braving cold weather, Ghani and Modi offered prayers at the most holy place of the Sikh religion and wrote remarks in the visitor's book maintained by the Sikh Gurdwara Parbhandak Committee.

The Golden Temple authorities honoured the two leaders by offering them 24 carat gold replica of the temple and a set of five books besides a 'siropa' (a piece of saffron cloth offered to dignitaries at a Sikh religious place or function) and shawl.
