After the Narendra Modi Government distanced itself from holding any anniversaries to commemmorate departed national leaders other than Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbai Patel, the All India Congress Committee extended an invitation to the President to attend the event.
The President will arrive at 'Shakti Sthal' in the morning and attend prayers being organised at the memorial, official sources said.
The President may also visit 1, Safdurjung Road where Gandhi was assassinated by her own bodyguards in 1984.
The anniversaries of other departed leaders may be observed by respective trusts, parties, societies or supporters. The Cabinet also decided not to convert government bungalows into memorials.
