Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s proposed visit to Uttar Pradesh’s Kushinagar district on Friday has been postponed due to heavy rain that had led to waterlogging at the venue of the event that he was scheduled to attend.
However, his proposed visit to the closing ceremony of centenary celebrations of the historical Gita Press will go as scheduled, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said in a statement.
