New Delhi: The President of Sri Lanka Anura Kumara Disanayaka will be paying a State Visit to India on December 15-17. This will be the first bilateral visit of President Disanayaka to India after taking over the office.

During his visit, President Disanayaka will meet President Droupadi Murmu and hold discussions with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on bilateral issues of mutual interest, a statement said.
