Full state honors for Ratan Tata, one day mourning announced in Maharashtra
Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set for a packed schedule during his visit to Kolkata on November 29. Here's a detailed look at his itinerary for the day.
Amit Shah will kick off his day by leaving for Kolkata from Delhi at 11 am, traveling in a special Air Force aircraft. The Home Minister is expected to touch down at Dumdum airport around 1:15 pm, marking the start of his engagements in the city.
At 1:35 pm, Shah will take a special helicopter from Dumdum airport to reach the Race Course ground, showcasing the use of air travel for efficient intra-city transportation. Following his time at the Race Course, Amit Shah will proceed to Dharmatalla by car, reaching the destination by 1:45 pm.
Amit Shah will wrap up his engagements in Kolkata by leaving for Delhi from Kolkata Airport at 3:45 pm, concluding a day of significant events in the city.
The proposed BJP rally in Kolkata on Wednesday with Amit Shah as speaker will be an opportunity, as much a challenge, for the saffron party to publicly show its strength, as it plans to take on the ruling Trinamool in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
