Ruling on Breaking Fast on the 30th Day of Ramadan

Question

A man lives in Saudi Arabia and after breaking his fast on the 30th day of Ramadan, he left for Rajasthan. When he arrived here, he saw that the last fast was still going on, even though his 30 fasts had already been completed. Now what should this man do? Should he fast or break his fast?
