\nPunjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh has deputed Local Government Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu to join Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri to receive<\/p>\n
Justin Trudeau at the Amritsar airport tomorrow ahead of his one-to-one meeting with the Canadian Prime Minister.<\/p>\n
Following up on his directions to the state administration to roll out the red carpet for the visiting dignitary, the Chief Minister has asked Sidhu to accompany the<\/p>\n
Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Housing and Urban Affairs to welcome Trudeau at the airport and also to the Sri Darbar Sahib.<\/p>\n
Lok Sabha MP from Amritsar Gurjeet Singh Aujla would also accompany Sidhu later during the Canadian Prime Minister\u2019s visit to the Partition Museum,<\/p>\n
according to an official spokesperson, who said the Chief Minister had instructed the officials to ensure that all arrangements are in place to welcome Trudeau<\/p>\n
and his entourage.<\/p>\n
The spokesperson further disclosed that Sidhu would be accompanied by the Commissioner of Police S.S. Srivastva and the Deputy Commissioner<\/p>\n
Kamaldeep Singh Sangha.<\/p>\n
The highlight of Trudeau\u2019s visit to Amritsar is his meeting with the Chief Minister after his visit to Darbar Sahib and Partition Museum. The two leaders are<\/p>\n
expected to discuss a host of issues of mutual concern with the aim of further strengthening the close business and people-to-people relations between the two<\/p>\n
countries.<\/p>\n
Captain Amarinder has already expressed the hope that his meeting with Trudeau would help strengthen the bilateral relations between Canada and India,<\/p>\n
particularly in the context of Punjab, which has a large diaspora in Canada. While trade and business will be the key focus area of the meeting, the two leaders<\/p>\n
are also expected to discuss steps to intensify the close relations between the people of the two countries<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
