New Delhi: India rolls out the red carpet for Britain's Prince Charles and wife Camilla Parker, as they arrive on a week-long visit on Sunday. This is his first visit to New Delhi with the Duchess of Cornwall.
The visit of the royal couple to India this time, however, does not have the same buzz and excitement, which stalked him when he came with Princess Diana fourteen years back.
The royal couple will be in India after state visits to Egypt and Saudi Arabia. They will attend a reception organised by the British High Commission. The English cricket team will also be present at the function.
Prince Charles is also going to Punjab and Rajasthan, where he will announce initiatives in sustainable farming, water conservation and employment generation.
In Punjab, Chief Minister Amarinder Singh will host a dinner for the prince, who will stay for the night at Singh's Moti Bagh palace.
The Prince is likely to visit Sri Keshgarh Sahib, popularly known as Gurdwara Anandpur Sahib -- the second most important Sikh religious place after the Golden Temple in Amritsar.
