Justin Trudeau Visits Golden Temple

21 Feb, 2018
ith a saffron-coloured cloth covering his head, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Wednesday offered prayers at the Golden Temple here, where he was presented with a traditional robe of honour.
 
In a white kurta-pyjama, the visiting premier prayed at the sanctum sanctorum of the temple during an almost hour-long visit to the shrine.
 
Trudeau was accompanied by his wife, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau, and two of his three children, who were also clad in traditional Punjabi outfits.
 
The prime minister and his family also tried rolling out rotis at the Guru Ram Das Jee Langar hall, where  devotees do voluntary kitchen work for feeding visitors.
 
 
They greeted devotees with folded hands while scores of visitors could be seen holding up their mobile phones to take pictures and videos of the Trudeaus.
