During this visit, he plans to meet the security personnel stationed in the Tawang sector of Arunachal Pradesh on the occasion of Vijaydashmi/Dussehra.
Rajnath Singh took to Twitter, or 'X', to announce his trip.
In his post, he stated, "Today, 23rd October, I shall be reaching Tezpur on a 2 day visit to Assam & Arunachal Pradesh. During my visit, I will interact with Armed Forces personnel deployed in the region and also visit forward areas."
He added, "Looking forward to celebrate Dussehra with the soldiers in Tawang."
