Prime Minister Narendra Modi is on a two-day visit to Karnataka, on June 20 and 21. The hectic visit will see him inaugurating a series of developmental and public utilities projects in Bengaluru, including the much-awaited suburban rail for the city.
But the highlight of this trip will be his participation in the International Day of Yoga event in the backdrop of the iconic Mysuru palace on Tuesday.
Ahead of the visit, many of the routes that he is expected to travel through saw a huge facelift. Anticipating security and traffic concerns, the Education Department declared a one-day holiday to a total of 22 schools along the routes that will be taken by the Prime Minister.
PM Modi took to twitter to outline the itinerary of his trip.
Thousands of BJP workers decked up with Modi masks, BJP party caps, shawls, flags and other paraphernalia have gathered on either side of Ballari Road. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will arrive at the Air Force Training Command Helipad, Yelahanka and will reach the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) by road.
Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, former chief minister B. S. Yediyurappa, Union Minister Prahlad Joshi, BJP State president Nalin Kumar Kateel and other leaders will welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Air Force Training Command, Yelahanka.
The PM will return to the Air Force Training Command Helipad, from where he will leave for Kommaghatta, Kengeri to lay the foundation stone for the suburban rail project.

When fed into Latin, pusilla comes out denoting “very small”. The Baillon’s crake can be missed in the field, when it is at a distance, as the magnification of the human eye is woefully short of what it takes to pick up this tiny creature. The other factor is the Baillon’s crake’s predisposition to present less of itself: it moves about furtively and slides into the reeds at the slightest suspicion of being noticed. But if you are keen on observing the Baillon’s crake or the ruddy breasted crake in the field, in Chennai, this would be the best time to put in efforts towards that end. These birds live amidst reeds, the bulrushes, which are likely to lose their density now as they would shrivel and go brown, leaving wide gaps, thereby reducing the cover for these tiddly birds to stay inscrutable.
