The Vice President of India, C. P. Radhakrishnan, is scheduled to arrive in Sri Lanka today (19) on an official visit, which will continue until tomorrow (20).
During his stay, he is expected to hold bilateral discussions with President Anura Kumara Dissanayake and Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya, as part of ongoing high-level diplomatic engagements between Sri Lanka and India.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the visit will also include participation in several official events and meetings with political and community leaders. Several Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) are expected to be exchanged, focusing on strengthening cooperation between the two countries, particularly in development partnerships and rehabilitation efforts linked to the recent Cyclone Ditwah situation.
Meanwhile, Sri Lanka Police have announced the implementation of a special traffic plan in view of the visit. The Vice President is expected to arrive at Bandaranaike International Airport this morning and proceed in a motorcade to Taj Samudra Hotel at Galle Face.
Traffic restrictions will be in place along the relevant routes during this period, with further limitations expected when the Vice President travels from the hotel to the Presidential Secretariat. Police added that similar traffic arrangements will be implemented the following day along routes used by the official motorcade.
