Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will flag in the Indian Air Force (IAF) and Uttarakhand War Memorial car rally in Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh, on October 30. The 32-member rally, which is traveling through various regions, arrived in Guwahati on Thursday, where they were warmly welcomed by Gauhati University’s staff and students. University Vice-Chancellor Prof. Nani Gopal Mahanta, Guwahati Air Force Station commander Air Commodore SS Prabhune, and Uttarakhand War Memorial chairman Tarun Vijay greeted the rally participants during their visit to the city.
