Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s scheduled visit to Nadia, West Bengal, on December 20, 2025, faced a significant delay today due to persistent dense fog. The Prime Minister’s helicopter was unable to land at the Taherpur helipad due to near-zero visibility, forcing it to return to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata. As of 1:00 PM, the Prime Minister remains at the airport awaiting a weather clearance. He is slated to inaugurate National Highway projects worth ₹3,200 crore and address the “Parivartan Sankalpa Sabha” rally, a key political event ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. Officials are currently evaluating whether to re-attempt the flight or proceed to the venue via a high-security road convoy.
