G20 leaders arrive at Rajghat to pay homage to Mahatma Gandhi
New Delhi, Sep 10 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday received G20 leaders at the rain-drenched Rajghat where they will pay tributes to Mahatma Gandhi.
United Nations Secretary General António Guterres, IMF head Kristalina Georgieva, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong were amongst the first to reach the venue this morning.
Modi welcomed the dignitaries with an ‘angvastram’ or stole while standing against the backdrop of an image of Sabarmati Ashram, which was Mahatma Gandhi’s residence from 1917 until 1930 and served as one of the main centres of the freedom struggle.
