President Droupadi Murmu will visit Rajasthan from February 27 for two days, attending the Indian Air Force's largest military exercise, Vayu Shakti-2026, at the Pokhran Field Firing Range in Jaisalmer. She will co-pilot a Light Combat Helicopter Prachand in a first-of-its-kind aerial survey of the exercise area near the Pakistan border

Visiting Rajasthan’s desert city of Jaisalmer will soon become more expensive, with the municipal council deciding to levy a passenger tax on vehicles entering the city. Approved by the state’s Local Self-Government Department, the tax will be collected at entry points on Barmer and Jodhpur roads, with rates ranging from Rs 50 to Rs 200
