Ram Nath Kovind will be the third President to address Himachal Pradesh Assembly after his predecessors APJ Abdul Kalam and Pranab Mukherjee
President Ram Nath Kovind will be on a four-day visit to Himachal Pradesh from Thursday, a state government official said. He will address a special session of the Himachal Pradesh Assembly and will be chief guest at the Valedictory Ceremony of the Indian Audit and Accounts Service at the National Academy of Audit and Accounts at Shimla, the official said. The President will stay at Cecil hotel at Chaura Maidan here instead of The Retreat -- the President's residence at Chharabra on the outskirts of Shimla -- as four its employees had tested positive for COVID-19 on Saturday, he added. The State Assembly Speaker Vipin Singh Parmar told the media here on Tuesday that President Ram Nath Kovind would address the special session of the State Assembly on Friday at 11:00 am to mark the golden jubilee of Himachal Pradesh's statehood.More Related News
