Lauding Singh's efforts as 'exemplary', Bharti said that she will visit him soon, to seek his blessings.
"I congratulate you on this exemplary feet," she wrote.
She also added that she will be unable to meet him on April 10, owing to her commitment to visit Champaran, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is slated to address approximately 20,000 Swachhagrahis (ambassadors of cleanliness movement), in the concluding ceremony of Champaran Satyagraha centenary celebrations.
"I had a wish that if you would call in the 'Bhandara' of Narmada Parikrama, I would definitely come. However, on April 10, I will have to go to Champaran, so it my misfortune is that I will not be able to join you," she added.
