The King and Queen of Bhutan, Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck and Jetsun Pema Wangchuck, accompanying the little Prince Jigme Namgyal Wangchuk, arrived in New Delhi on Tuesday on a four-day visit to India. External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj was present to receive the royal couple at the airport. However, what caught media’s attention was the sight of EAM holding hand of the one and half year old prince while coming out of airport.
