Amritsar, Mar 24 (ANI): Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh on Tuesday morning paid obeisance at the Sri Harmandir Sahib also known as the Golden Temple.
Dr. Singh along with his wife Gursharan Kaur offered thanks giving prayers after his successful coronary by-pass surgery.
Before entering the sanctom sanctorum, the Prime Minister did ”Parikrama” of Sri Harmandir Sahib and then listened to the ”path” and ”ardaas”. He spent more than half-an-hour there.
Before leaving for New Delhi, Dr. Singh also visited the Durgiana Temple.
This was his first trip outside Delhi since he underwent a coronary by-pass surgery.
Seventy-six-year-old Dr. Singh underwent a ”redo” coronary artery bypass surgery to remove five blockages in his heart at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on January 24 and has since been recuperating. (ANI)
