  • The visit includes witnessing the 'Bagurumba' Bodo folk dance performed by 10,000 artists at Arjun Bhogeswar Barua Sports stadium in Guwahati.
  • PM Modi will lay the foundation stone for the ₹6,957 crore Kaziranga elevated corridor in Kaliabor.
  • He is also set to virtually flag off two Amrit Bharat Express trains: Dibrugarh-Gomti Nagar and Kamakhya-Rohtak.
