Elections to the 60-member assembly will be held on February 16. Counting will take place on March 2.
During the visit, Amit Shah ji will address Vijay Sankalp' rallies in South Tripura's Santirbazar and Khowai, and attend a roadshow in Banamalipur constituency of Agartala, he said.
Security arrangements have been tightened in the northeastern state in view of the Union minister's visit, a senior police officer said on Monday.
