Gandhinagar
Sources in Gandhinagar suggests that President of India Dr. Pranab Mukherjee will not come to Gandhinagar for concluding session of Pravasi Bharatiya Divas(PBD) – 2015. It is learnt that Shri Mukhrjee has canceled his visit due to heart surgery he underwent in Delhi recently. He has been advised by doctors to continue to take rest. There’s a tradition that President attends the concluding function of PBD and presents award. This time however, instead of President, the Vice President Hamid Ansari will attend the concluding session of Pravasi Bharatiya Divas which is going to be held in Gandhinagar, Gujarat during 7-8-9 January.
