The timing of the Platinum Jubilee celebrations to be held on February 15 at BIT Mesra has been changed. President Draupadi Murmu is going to attend this program. Earlier this program was to start at 10 am, but now it has been done at 11 am.
This change has been made due to the Jharkhand Academic Council examination. The examination will start at 9:30 am. Barricading would have been done for traffic control on the arrival of the President, due to which the students could have faced difficulty in reaching the examination centre. For this reason, the time of the program of BIT Mesra has been extended by one hour so that the examinees do not face any problem.
The President will reach Ranchi on February 14. Alternative routes have also been decided to keep the traffic smooth during her movement.
The President can go to BIT Mesra from Raj Bhavan via Kanke Road via Ring Road. Arrangements have been made to reach BIT Mesra from Bypass Booti Mor. This change will provide relief to both the candidates and the guests attending the program.
