Dibrugarh: Under the Assam Rifles Civic Action Programme, the Khonsa Battalion of Assam Rifles has organised a National Integration Tour for students from Wangcha Rajkumar Government College, Deomali, in Arunachal Pradesh’s Tirap district.
The students will attend the 26th Rashtra Katha Shivir organised by Shri Vedic Mission Trust at Pransla village in Rajkot district, Gujarat.
A total of 11 students from the area of responsibility of Khonsa Battalion are participating in the tour, scheduled from 27 December 2025 to 4 January 2026.
The tour was flagged off by Wanki Lowang, Minister of Geology, Mining and Minerals, Government of Arunachal Pradesh, on Thursday, December 25, from Deomali.
The initiative aims to inculcate a sense of nationalism, foster national integration, and expose Northeastern youth to India’s rich cultural heritage and developmental progress.
The National Integration Tour will provide participants with an opportunity to interact with people from different regions of the country, broaden their outlook, and gain valuable insights into social harmony, unity, and cultural diversity.
The initiative also seeks to positively channel the energy and potential of local youth and prevent them from being lured into the menace of drugs and insurgency.
The conduct of this tour reflects the continued commitment of Assam Rifles toward the holistic development of Northeastern youth and the promotion of peace, harmony, and unity in the region.
