New Delhi, January 29

Union Home Minister Amit Shah is all set to lay the foundation stone of the new Assam legislative assembly building and the Wildlife Research Institute in his day-long visit to the state on January 30.

In the visit, Shah will participate in a series of official, cultural and organisational programmes across the state.

The visit will begin in Dibrugarh, where the Home Minister will lay the foundation stone of the new Assam Legislative Assembly building and the Wildlife Research Institute, marking a significant step towards strengthening the state's legislative infrastructure and wildlife conservation framework.

On the same occasion, Shah will also inaugurate Phase I of Khanikar Stadium, a project aimed at boosting sports infrastructure in Upper Assam. The programme is scheduled to take place at around 10:30 am at Khanikar, Dibrugarh.

State government officials said the new Assembly complex is envisioned as a modern legislative facility equipped with advanced amenities, while the Wildlife Research Institute will play a crucial role in scientific research, conservation and protection of Assam's rich biodiversity.

Later in the day, the Union Home Minister will travel to Dhemaji to attend the 10th Mishing Cultural Festival at Kareng Chapori at 12:15 pm. The festival, organised annually by the Mishing community, celebrates the tribe's rich cultural heritage through traditional dance, music, art, attire and indigenous food.

In the evening, Shah will arrive in Guwahati to meet party office bearers and karyakartas at the Assam state office. The interaction is expected to focus on organisational matters, upcoming political programmes and strengthening grassroots outreach in the state.

Senior leaders of the Assam unit of the party are likely to brief the Union Home Minister on ongoing initiatives, organisational preparedness and future strategies. The meeting is also expected to energise party workers ahead of upcoming political activities.

Shah's visit is considered significant in the context of development initiatives, cultural outreach and organisational consolidation in Assam.

Adequate security arrangements have been put in place at all venues in view of the high-profile visit, officials said.

Glad to see development reaching Upper Assam! The Khanikar Stadium and the Wildlife Research Institute are much-needed projects. Hope they create local employment opportunities. Attending the Mishing festival shows respect for indigenous culture, which is important. 👍

Finally! Our current assembly building is quite old. A modern complex with better facilities will hopefully lead to more efficient governance. The combination of legislative, sports, and wildlife projects in one visit is a good holistic approach for Assam's progress.

As someone who loves Assam's wildlife, the Research Institute is the most exciting part. Rhinos, elephants, tigers... they need all the scientific help they can get. Hope it's well-funded and independent in its research.

Foundation stone ceremonies are fine, but what about the completion timelines and cost overruns we often see? Let's hope this project doesn't get stuck for years. Transparency in spending public money is key. The stadium will be great for young athletes if done properly.

Appreciate that the Home Minister is attending the Mishing Cultural Festival. Recognition and celebration of our diverse tribal heritage is crucial for national integration. Jai Hind! 🇮🇳 The new assembly should also reflect Assam's architectural and cultural identity, not just be a glass box.
