Modi is expected to meet various NGO and civil society leaders at Aizawl later in the day before flying back to New Delhi.
Meanwhile, the Mizoram Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) has threatened to stage agitation when Modi visits Aizawl on Thursday.
Congress spokesperson Lallianchhunga had earlier told the media that the party would use all its resources to oppose the Prime Minister’s visit.
He was of the opinion that the Congress was not happy after the AICC president Rahul Gandhi was denied the Assam Rifles Ground for public rally.
The Assam Rifles, on that occasion had reportedly refused to grant permission citing that the ground was meant for sports activities only.
The Congress while crying foul said the rejection from Assam Rifles was prompted by the Union Home Ministry.
