The highly anticipated President’s Trophy Boat Race and the grand finale of the Champions Boat League (CBL) will take place in Kollam on November 21. Minister P. C. Vishnunadh announced the date during the organising committee formation meeting held here on Tuesday.

To ensure the seamless execution of the event, a welcome committee has been formed, comprising the Chief Minister, State Ministers, Members of Parliament, Members of the Legislative Assembly, and representatives from various political parties. An organising committee chaired by N. K. Premachandran MP, along with approximately 17 sub-committees, has also been constituted to oversee various aspects of the festival.
