The state government had made preparations to welcome him as Governor and was looking forward to work with the constitutional expert, Modi, who had known the veteran Congressman for last 15 years, said.

Gujarat Assembly Speaker Ashok Bhatt will travel to Delhi along with Urban Development Minister Nitin Patel to attend Dwivedi's last rites.
