Sri Lanka: President Sirisena Not Visiting India

Sri Lanka’s Presidential Secretariat said that there is no scheduled visit by President Maithripala Sirisena to India in the next few days.

The Ceylon Today newspaper stated last Friday that the President is due to attend a ceremony to be held in Nalanda University in Bihar in India with the spiritual leader Dalai Lama.

“That report is incorrect and it has not verified any basis of the reported visit,” the Presidential Secretariat said in a statement.

The Presidential Secretariat further said that President Maithripala Sirisena will not make any visit to India near future.
