It is our duty to cast the vote. Shareer asusht hai, fir bhi hum aaye hai apna vote daan karne ke liye aur kar diya apna vote daan (I just came out of the hospital yesterday.

Zubeen Garg's Death

Zubeen passed away on September 19, 2025, in Singapore, during a yacht trip. He was in the country to perform at the North East India Festival, which was supposed to take place the following day.

While there have been speculations about foul play in his death, a few days ago, a Singapore coroner’s inquiry concluded that the Assamese singer died due to accidental drowning, ruling out any foul play in the case.

The singer's demise shocked his fans. They are still mourning his death on social media and asking for justice.
