Prince of Wales Prince Charles to Visit Kerala in His Birthday
16 October 2013
Kochi
The Prince of Wales will be in India on his 65th birthday and will celebrate the landmark at a reception in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Clarence House has announced. The Prince and the Duchess of Cornwall will spend nine days in India next month before travelling to Sri Lanka for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) where the Prince is representing the Queen for the first time.
The Prince will be in Kochi in the south-western state of Kerala on November 14, the day he becomes a pensioner, but it will be a busy working day for him and the Duchess.
They will visit a 16th century synagogue, the oldest in the Commonwealth, as well as a museum before boarding a flight to Colombo, where they will attend a reception at the British High Commission.
A spokesman for the Prince said no formal party was planned, but “there’s likely to be some singing and maybe even a cake” at the High Commission reception. The royal couple will have a rest day on November 13, giving them time for a private celebration, though royal sources insisted the Prince “doesn’t want any fuss” about the fact that he will be eligible for his free bus pass.
