Phagwara administration accorded a warm welcome to Patrick Farmer as he arrived at his latest stop on his 4,600-km 'Spirit of India Run-2016' run.
The run, Farmer said, is aimed at promoting ties between India and Australia and encouraging tourism and people-to- people contact. He also aims to create awareness about India as a "must experience" destination for travellers from Australia.
