India's Air Chief Marshal Birender Singh Dhanoa is going to Sri Lanka on an official tour from December 11 to 14.

During his visit, the Chief of Air Staff is scheduled to hold meetings with the officials of Sri Lanka Air Force and deliberate on the matters of mutual interest to both the nations related to regional security.

He will also review the Commissioning, Award of Wings and Passing Out Parade of the Lankan Air Force, which is scheduled for December 14. The occasion will be the first in Sri Lankan history to witness a foreign Air Force Chief reviewing the parade ceremony.
