Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Rameswaram on April 6 for the opening of the new Pamban Rail Bridge. The day is also celebrated as Ram Navami.

After the inauguration of the Pamban Rail Bridge, PM Modi will visit the Ramanathaswamy Temple in Rameswaram for darshan. In view of the Prime Minister’s visit, the government has imposed a fishing ban. Fishing activities are banned from April 4 to April 6 in Rameswaram, Pamban, and Mandapam.
Boats at Pamban must move to Kundukal Harbor. Small fishing boats are required to shift to Thangachimadam. Officials say these measures are taken to ensure safety during PM Modi’s visit.
