Bhubaneswar: President Droupadi Murmu’s two-day visit to her home district of Mayurbhanj in Odisha has been officially postponed.
Originally scheduled for October 28 and 29, the tour has been deferred by a week as a safety precaution with a cyclonic storm brewing over the Bay of Bengal. Rashtrapati Bhavan and local administrative sources confirmed that the itinerary has not been cancelled, but merely rescheduled to ensure safety amid unfavourable weather conditions.
