Nadda who is on a two-day tour in Assam will address a public meeting in Silchar and attend a number of other party programmes.
He is also scheduled to attend a meeting with state party leadership.
The assembly poll in the northeastern state is likely to be held in April.
The saffron party, which had stormed to power in the state for the first time in 2016, is confident of keeping the throne after putting up an impressive show in recent Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) and Tiwa Autonomous Council (TAC) polls and also due to perceived feebleness in the ranks of main opposition Congress.
