Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh will embark on an eight-day private visit to london on Thursday. This will be Capt Amarinder’s first visit abroad after becoming Chief Minister in March 2017.
“The Chief Minister will be leaving for london tomorrow on a private visit. He will be returning on September 15,” his media advisor Raveen Thukral said on wednesday.
Events which are part of his schedule include a few functions which he will be attending for the launch of his book — “The 36th Sikhs in the Tirah Campaign 1897-98: Saragarhi and the Defence of Samana Forts”. The book is a homage to the 21 men of the 36th Sikh (now 4 Sikh) unit who laid down their lives fighting.
