London, Oct 26 (PTI) President Pratibha Patil arrived here today on the first-leg of a two-nation state visit to the UK and Cyprus during which she will receive the Commonwealth baton from Queen Elizabeth, marking initiation of the year-long relay of the symbol of the sporting event to be held in New Delhi next October.

London is the first stop of Patil's week-long two-nation tour that will also take her to Cyprus.

During her visit to Britain, first by an Indian President after 20 years, she will hold talks with Prime Minister Gordon Brown and meet Leader of Opposition David Cameroon. Queen Elizabeth will host a banquet in honour of her.
