BJP national president Amit Shah arrived in Yadgir, Karnataka, to participate in the Navashakti Samavesha on Sunday, but two hours late.
Shah paid a visit to a Gurudwara and had a darshan of the Guru Granth Sahib in Bidar city on Sunday.
The Shah couple who came two hours late, signed the visitors’ register at the Gurudwara and spent time in worship at the Gurdwara.
Shah was honored by the Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee president Balbir Singh who wrapped a shawl around him and handed him a silver sword.
The BJP leader then accepted the thirth of the Amurt Kunda and prostrated before the Gurudwara.
He spent 20 minutes in the Gurudwara and proceeded towards Rekulaki Mount, Bidar taluk where he garlanded the statue of Gautama Buddha.
Because of the late arrival of Amit Shah to BJP’s Navashakti Samavesha at Surupura, people who had gathered for the event took shelter under trees all over.
The temperature in Surapura is 36 degrees Celcius. Shah was supposed to finish appointments in Humnabad, Bidar district and arrive at 12.40 pm.
The Shah couple who came one and half hours late for the Navashakti Samavesha at Surapura, had lunch at traveler’s bungalow at the historic Taylor Manzil, Yadgir.
They were served the typical Karnataka fare of Holige, Chappatis, rice-sambar and a Gujrati sweet.
