Shah, CM to visit Siliguri as BJP showcases 100-day achievements
Big leaders from the national government are coming to a city called Siliguri.
The home minister, Amit Shah, and the chief minister, Subhendu Adhikari, will visit on August 22.
They belong to a political party called the BJP.
The state government has made new decisions and laws in its first 100 days.
To show everyone what they have done, they will put on a special exhibition.
The exhibition will be held at a place called Kawakhali, just outside Siliguri.
Shah may stay in the state for three days, from August 20 to 22.
Some leaders from the nearby hills think Shah should visit them too.
They are asking for a 'permanent political solution.'
Earlier in July, Shah visited the border between India and Bangladesh along the Siliguri corridor.
Union home minister Amit Shah and chief minister Subhendu Adhikari will visit Siliguri on August 22, according to police sources.
The state will organise an exhibition at Kawakhali on the outskirts of Siliguri to highlight the BJP government's first 100-day achievements in Bengal.
Shah is likely to be in Bengal on a three-day visit from August 20 to 22.
BJP MP Raju Bista and Rajya Sabha member H V Shringla previously said Shah would pay an official visit to the hills, where the 'permanent political solution' issue is gaining ground.
In mid-July, Shah visited the India-Bangladesh border along the strategic Siliguri corridor and attended three high-level meetings.
