President Droupadi Murmu has announced that two significant halls in Rashtrapati Bhavan have been renamed as part of an effort to better reflect Indian cultural values and ethos. The Durbar Hall will now be known as Ganatantra Mandap, and the Ashok Hall will be renamed Ashok Mandap.

President Murmu along with other officials of the President's Secretariat, also performed yoga at the Rashtrapati Bhavan here.

There were bugles, ceremonial guards, flowers and all the trappings of a grand spectacle as President Droupadi Murmu administered the oath of office. But the political overtones dominated them all.

According to the advisory, no traffic movement will be allowed on the Sansad Marg (between Transport Bhawan and T-point Rafi Ahmed Kidwai Marg), North Avenue Road, South Avenue Road, Kushak Road, Rajaji Marg, Krishna Menon Marg, Talkatora Road and Pt. Pant Marg between 2 pm to 11 pm. 

India witnessed a significant moment as the President of our country, Droupadi Murmu, virtually inaugurated the Visitor Facilitation Centre (VFC) at Rashtrapati Nilayam. This inauguration marked a pivotal step in enhancing accessibility and the overall visitor experience at one of India's historic landmarks.
