He also appreciated the gesture of the Delhi Police for carrying out a 'parikrama' of Gurudwara Bangla Sahib near Connaught Place on motorcycles and cars to thank the sewadars for helping and feeding the needy.
"Good gesture by the @DelhiPolice," he said.
The prime minister was responding to a tweet by president, Delhi Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee Manjinder S Sirsa, who referred to the gesture of the city police to thank the shrine for organising 'langars' (a community free kitchen).
A short video posted by Sirsa showed several police motorcycles and cars moving slowly, with sirens blazing, for the 'parikrama'(to circle around an object of devotion as an indication of reverence).
