Apart from the flag-lowering ceremony, there will also be performances by the Army troops and various cultural groups.
The BSF officials said that the cultural groups will showcase the rich culture of the northeastern region of India through music and dance.
Security forces will also showcase the strength and power of India, an official said.
Construction of an auditorium, museum and restaurants at the border are also being planned.
Dhubri ADC Pallav Mazumder said that Sonahat has been chosen as a site for carrying out the project because it has an International Trade Centre and the roadways of the town are better than other border areas of Dhubri district.
