Prime Minister Narendra Modi today visited Radha Soami Satsang at Beas in Amritsar and met its chief Baba Gurinder Singh Dhillon.

Later, PM Modi went to the Dera community kitchen where women followers were making chapatis and chopping vegetables, the Dera officials said.

The Prime Minister spent about an hour at the Radha Soami Satsang Beas (RSSB), they said.

On Friday, PM Modi had in a tweet said he would have the honour of visiting RSSB.

"Under the leadership of Baba Gurinder Singh Dhillon Ji, the RSSB is at the forefront of numerous community service efforts," PM Modi had said in his tweet.
