Dame Cindy and Dr Davies hosted a State Ceremony of Welcome this morning for The Honourable Droupadi Murmu, President of India. President Murmu is in Aotearoa New Zealand for three days as part of a wider visit to the Pacific and Southeast Asia. President Murmu is the 15th President of India, and is the second woman to be elected to this role. Today’s Ceremony of Welcome was supported by the New Zealand Army, the Royal New Zealand Air Force Band and the New Zealand Defence Force Cultural group. We wish President Murmu all the very best during her time in New Zealand.
