The Vice-President is expected to land at Coimbatore International Airport via a special flight at 9:40 a.m. on Tuesday, where he will be greeted by senior district officials and BJP supporters, who have organized a grand reception for their hometown leader now serving in the nation’s second-highest constitutional role.
