Sonitpur district administration orders magisterial enquiry into alleged disrespect to Zubeen Garg at Tezpur University

The Sonitpur district administration has ordered a magisterial inquiry into Tezpur University for allegedly disrespecting late Assamese icon Zubeen Garg. Students protested the conduct of student council elections a day after his death, confronting the Vice Chancellor and highlighting the absence of formal tribute programs. Amid the unrest, the university’s PRO resigned, citing suppression of student voices.
