He has conveyed his regret to the President's office for not being able to attend the banquet, sources close to Singh said.
The opposition Congress is peeved at the Modi government's move to not allow its top leaders a meeting with the visiting US president, as has been the tradition.
Congress leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad are also skipping the President's banquet in protest over the party's top leaders not being extended an invitation.
