This is the second time she has postponed her Assam visit.
“The President’s visit is postponed. However, the programme will take place as scheduled and the award will be presented by the Governor,” an official of the Assam Governor’s Secretariat told PTI.
The President’s Office has also intimated the chief minister’s principal secretary about postponing the visit.
Murmu was originally scheduled to confer the state award on April 25, but had postponed her two-day visit then in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack and subsequent developments. PTI TR RBT
