Ahead of Donald Trump's visit to Taj Mahal in Agra, posters of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, US President and US' First lady Melania Trump have been put up. The visit to Taj Mahal by the US President and the First Lady would give them the opportunity to view the historical monument suitably. Hence, no official engagements or presence of senior dignitaries from the Indian side is envisaged in Agra. https://www.ptcnews.tv/donald-trump-on-ayushmann-khurrana-shubh-mangal-zyada-saavdhan-en/ Meanwhile, Delhi Government source was quoted by news agency that the names of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Deputy CM Manish Sisodia have been dropped from the school event where Melania Trump was scheduled to visit.
