New Delhi, May 28 (IBNS) A gala event will be held in the national capital on Saturday to mark the completion of two years of Narendra Modi led NDA government at the Centre.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and most of his ministerial colleagues are expected to attend the event to be held at the India Gate in the evening.
The government has also launched a series of other events to highlight its achievements.
At the India Gate, a mega show titled 'Ek Nayi Subah' or 'A New Dawn' will be staged.
Meanwhile, actor Amitabh Bachchan on Friday clarified that he was not hosting the event at India Gate.
"I am hosting a small segment of government's 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' campaign. I am the U.N. ambassador for girl child education. I am not hosting the two years of Modi Government event. In fact, Madhavan is hosting it," Bachchan told the media.
His clarification came in the wake of the Congress criticising the Centre for selecting the megastar to host the show and saying it might send wrong signals to the agencies probing the Panama paper leaks in which Bachchan's name came up..
