New Delhi, Oct 18 : After nearly a gap of 40 years, Myanmar's opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi will travel to India on November 13.
Suu Kyi, who will be in the country for nearly a week, will deliver the prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Lecture in here on November 14, official sources said here today.
They said she is also expected to travel out of Delhi during her visit but the exact itinerary was yet to be finalised.
