Gadkari to visit Britain next week

New Delhi, Jul 10 (PTI) Bharitya Janata Party
President Nitin Gadkari is leaving on a six-day visit to
Britain next week during which he will discuss Indo-British
economic cooperation with industry captains in London.
He will also address a convention of Overseas Friends
of BJP in the British capital on July 16, with the focus on
the fast deteriorating security scenario in South Asia and
Pakistan-sponsored terrorism against India, a party statement
said here.
The party said Gadkari's interaction with industry
captains assumes significance as BJP-ruled Indian states
Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka are hubs of foreign
direct investment.
All Party Parliamentary Group on Trade and Investment
with India and Commonwealth Business Forum has also organised
a business meeting with Indian and British industrialists
where Gadkari will invite Indo-British collaborations in the
BJP-ruled states in sectors of mutual interest.
