No more His Excellency, it's Hon'ble President

New Delhi, Oct 9 : Colonial era words like ‘His Excellency' used for addressing state dignitaries will soon be passe!  President Pranab Mukherjee has approved a new set of protocol to be used in greetings

Mukherjee, after reviewing the current protocol practices, also directed that the word Hon'ble will be used before the title of ‘President' or ‘Governor.'
