Nagaon, May 24: Expressions of support for Zubeen Garg marked a gathering at Zubeen Udyan in Nagaon town on Saturday evening, where attendees reiterated demands for justice for the singer.
Garima Garg, along with members of Jontro, visited the venue and offered floral tributes at a statue of the singer in the presence of Rupak Sarmah.
Jontro is a musical tribute band formed by Zubeen Garg’s long-time co-artistes and core musicians.
Addressing the gathering, Garima Garg questioned the denial of justice to the singer.
“If Zubeen Garg does not get justice, then who will?” she said, adding that if justice is not delivered in his case, “it would be better to remove the word ‘justice’ from our dictionary altogether”.
Partha Pratim Goswami, a long-time bandmate and close associate of the singer, said the statue would truly “come alive” on the day justice is delivered.
“On that day, I will be the first person to light a lamp here in his honour,” he said.
Participants at the programme appreciated the initiative to honour the singer and renewed calls seeking justice. The gathering witnessed emotional scenes as admirers and supporters assembled in solidarity with the artist.
