Recalling his old days and to relive it again, Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Thursday spent the night at the same Gurdwara at which he had stayed during cycle yatra in 2016.
Channi, who was then the Leader of Opposition in Punjab Vidhan Sabha, had embarked a cycle yatra across the State to sensitise people against the anti-people policies of the SAD-BJP Government. When the cycle yatra had reached Moga, Channi had stayed in Gurdwara Shaheed Baba Tega Singh at village Chand Purana (Moga) in the night. However, after assuming the charge as Chief Minister, Channi, who visited Moga to participate in several events, while departing from convention chose the same Gurdwara sahib for staying at night instead of any Hotel, rest house or palatial house of party leader.
The CM, who reached Gurdwara sahib at 6.40 pm paid obeisance in the Gurdwara sahib along with Baba Gurdeep Singh the main sewadar. He also partook of langar and was given a siropa (robe of honour). He said that visiting this place again after around four years has given a lot of satisfaction. He said that he has been blessed to have got an opportunity to pay reverence at this abode of God, which has a lot of significance in his life.
Channi was accompanied by Lok Sabha MP Mohammed Sadiq, MLA Harjot Kamal and others.
