The Punjab Vidhan Sabha today unanimously passed a resolution to mandate the state government to take up the issue of renaming the domestic terminal of Adampur Airport after Guru Ravidas with the Centre's department of civil aviation.
The resolution was moved by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Brahm Mohindra on the second day of the winter session of Assembly. Members of the ruling as well as opposition parties welcomed it.
Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) MLA from Adampur, Pawan Kumar Tinu, and AAP MLA from Dakha, H S Phoolka, lauded the initiative to rename the Adampur Domestic Airport after legendary spiritual saint Guru Ravidas.
Hailing the initiative of Captain Amarinder Singh in this regard, Chamkaur Sahib MLA and Technical Education Minister Charanjit Singh Channi said the move would go a long way in promoting the ethos of communal harmony, brotherhood and amity - values promoted by Sri Guru Ravidas.
