Pema Khandu opens guest house in Gaya

ITANAGAR: Arunachal Pradesh chief minister Pema Khandu on Tuesday inaugurated a state guest house in Gaya.

The G-plus-4 guest house built at a cost of Rs 15 crore, besides offering accommodation to Buddhist pilgrims from Arunachal Pradesh, will also double up as a convention and cultural centre.

Khandu profusely expressed gratitude to Bihar CM Nitish Kumar for allotting the land to the Arunachal Pradesh government for the construction of the guest house, a dream project of his father. Khandu recalled that his father Dorjee Khandu, as the then CM in 2011, had written a letter to Nitish seeking a plot. Unfortunately, barely a couple of months later, he died in a tragic helicopter crash near Tawang.

“In fact, when I met Nitish Kumar for the first time, he mentioned that he had received the letter from my father on the day when the tragic incident was flashing all over news channels. On my request to take the project forward, he promptly responded and allotted us the plot and ensured an all-out support to us,” Khandu said.
