French President Francois Hollande will arrive in India Sunday to be the chief guest at this country's Republic Day parade Tuesday, sources said Saturday.
Sources said that the French President's first stop is the central government-controlled territory of Chandigarh in northern India.
"Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet President Hollande in Chandigarh Sunday. A meeting is scheduled between them at the city's best-known landmark, the Rock Garden," the sources said.
This will be the first visit by a French President to Chandigarh that was founded and designed by French architect Le Corbusier in the 1950s.
After a day's visit to Chandigarh that includes an interactive session with Indian industrialists at a business summit in the city, the French president will come to the Indian capital Monday.
On Jan. 26, the French president will witness the Republic Day parade on the iconic Rajpath at the heart of the national capital as the chief guest.
