"Acting CG @Aarsha_NS welcomed Hon'ble Chief Minister of Jharkhand, Shri Hemant Soren, to Barcelona. The delegation led by CM has engagements with Indian diaspora entrepreneurs, Spanish dignitaries, and key meetings with @firabarcelona & @FCBarcelona for future collaborations," India in Barcelona said on X.

The Sagrada Familia is a one-of-a-kind temple, for its origins, foundation and purpose. Fruit of the work of genius architect Antoni Gaudi, the project was promoted by the people for the people. Five generations have now watched the Temple progress in Barcelona. Today, more than 140 years after the laying of the cornerstone, construction continues on the Basilica, according to the official site of the Sagrada Familia.

Meanwhile, Soren's foreign visit has sparked criticism from the Bharatiya Janata Party. Jharkhand BJP President and Leader of Opposition Babulal Marandi questioned the timing and objective of the overseas trip.

He alleged that while the state struggles with rising incidents of daylight murders and a worsening electricity situation, the Chief Minister is embarking on an overseas visit with a large government delegation, accompanied by his wife, JMM MLA Kalpana Soren. (ANI)
