On the six-month death anniversary of Assam’s artist Zubeen Garg, his wife Garima Saikia Garg conveyed her grief and called for swift justice for her husband, emphasizing the slow legal process. She expressed concern for “Zubeen Kshetra,” stating the site is deteriorating in the rain and urging that Zubeen not be politicized. Religious rituals were held at their residence, where Garima prepared Zubeen’s favorite dishes for the Sapinda ritual. Fans and well-wishers honored him by lighting candles at his burial site, while AASU president Utpal Sharma criticized the government’s neglect of Zubeen Kshetra. A close associate suggested that if the government lacks resources, the public should take over the site’s development. Singer Manas Robin has initiated the construction of a tin shed to protect Zubeen’s photographs and items from admirers, ensuring their safety until the site is permanently developed. He pledged to enhance visitor experience with facilities like a temporary candle-lighting shed and supplies for drinking water.
