NORTH LAKHIMPUR, Jan 28: Union Home Minister Amit Shah will arrive in Assam on Thursday for a two-day tour, during which he will lay the foundation stone for the second complex of the state assembly in Dibrugarh, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said.
This will be Shah’s second visit to Assam within a month after he made a one-day tour to the state on December 29 last year and rolled out a series of government projects.
“The Union Home Minister will come tomorrow evening and will stay the night in Dibrugarh. On January 30, he will lay the foundation stone of the Assam Assembly’s second complex. There are some more programmes there,” Sarma told reporters on the sidelines of an official function at Rangamadi in Lakhimpur district on Wednesday.
