Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced on Wednesday, September 24, that Shyamkanu Mahanta and any organisations associated with him are banned from holding events or festivals in the state. The government will also withhold financial grants, advertisements, and sponsorships for any event linked to him and request the Union Government to do the same. This decision follows the sudden death of legendary Assamese singer Zubeen Garg in Singapore, which has left fans across the Northeast in shock. Questions and allegations have emerged surrounding the circumstances of Garg’s travel for the North East India Festival, placing Mahanta under intense public scrutiny. Mahanta, however, has denied claims that he forced the singer to travel. Zubeen Garg Death: Assam State Government to Build Memorial After Singer's Last Rites in Guwahati.
