Hi Mukesh, I think that's because 2018.ahmedabad is the current site. 2017.ahmedabad has a tag that links 2018.ahmedabad as the canonical URL.

When 2019.ahmedabad is created, then 2018.ahmedabad will automatically get a canonical tag pointing to the 2019 site.

Or are you suggesting that there's a need for the current site to have a canonical tag as well, for some other purpose?

That's the best practice, to have the canonical page also have a canonical tag confirming the current url is canonical.

I've attached a patch that should add the canonical tag to the current year in addition to the previous years.
