Pakistani ghazal maestro Ghulam Ali today arrived in Kolkata to perform at a concert tomorrow.

Organised by the state Minority Affairs and Madrasa Education Department, whose minister in-charge is Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, the singer will perform at the inaugural function of a trade fair organised for small and medium enterprises.

Banerjee will also attend the concert at Netaji Indoor stadium tomorrow evening.

In October last year, the Shiv Sena had threatened to disrupt Ali's concert in Mumbai warning that no artiste from Pakistan will be allowed to perform in the city till terror emanating from across the border stopped. After the incident, Banerjee had invited Ali to the city.
