Amritsar : Before President Pratibha Patil paid a visit to the Golden Temple on Wednesday, the Sikh shrine had another set of high-profile visitors. They were Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, daughter of UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, her husband Robert Vadra and their children who paid obeisance in the morning.
The family had arrived in the city on Tuesday evening and checked into a hotel after watching the Retreat Ceremony at Wagah-Attari border check post. Their visit was kept a closely guarded secret and they did not speak to the media who surrounded them at the Golden temple complex.Priyanka said it was a personal visit that they had been planning for a long time. The Vadras took a ‘parikarama of the shrine and paid obeisance at the Akal Takht. They also listened to Gurbani for some time inside the Darbar Sahib.
