India’s cultural diversity will be exhibited on the streets of Ahmedabad on Wednesday as artists from 28 states will put up an impressive show on an eight-km-long route, along which Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe will hold a roadshow.

Abe will arrive on a two-day India visit during which he and Modi will hold the 12th India-Japan annual summit. The two leaders will participate in a road show that would start from the Ahmedabad airport and culminate at the Sabarmati Ashram.

“Artists of 28 states to display Diversity of Indian culture in a 8KM long Cultural Road Show as hon’ble PM welcomes Japan’s PM,” tweeted Union Minister of State for Culture, Mahesh Sharma.
