NEW DELHI: India said on Friday (Dec 13) that a visit by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had been postponed, after days of violent protests at a northeastern city where a summit with Prime Minister Narendra Modi had been planned.

"Both sides have decided to defer the visit to a mutually convenient date in the near future," Indian foreign ministry spokesman Raveesh Kumar said in a statement.

Thousands of demonstrators were on Friday gearing up for another day of protests, after the Indian parliament passed contentious new citizenship legislation this week. An AFP reporter in Guwahati said that dozens of posters for the India-Japan summit were lying on the ground after protesters tore them down.
