Prime Minister Narendra Modi witnessed a cultural programme at Tent City near Dhordo in Kutch district on Tuesday evening before wrapping up his day-long visit to Gujarat. Well-known Gujarati folk singers Osman Mir and Geeta Rabari performed live at the cultural event organised at Tent City located near Dhordo village.
According to officials, the PM also visited stalls selling local handicraft items at Tent City, created as part of annual Rann Utsav in the middle of the desert for tourists.
