A Plea for Respect During Mourning
In an emotional statement released on Tuesday, the prominent student organization emphasized that this is a time for compassion and respect, not political maneuvering. The AASU leadership specifically requested that all political entities allow the Garg family to grieve in peace without turning their personal tragedy into a political opportunity.
Protecting the Family's Privacy
The student body expressed deep concern about potential attempts to use the situation for political gains. They stressed that the family deserves space and privacy during this difficult period of mourning. "This is not the time for political statements or visits that could disrupt the family's peace," the AASU statement read.
Zubeen Garg's Cultural Significance
Zubeen Garg remains one of Assam's most beloved cultural icons, with a career spanning decades that has touched millions of fans. His contributions to Assamese music and cinema have made him a household name across Northeast India and beyond.
Unity in Times of Grief
The AASU's message highlights the importance of maintaining social harmony and showing collective support during times of personal tragedy. They called upon all sections of society to stand with the grieving family rather than engaging in activities that might compound their sorrow.
The organization concluded by expressing their deepest condolences to Zubeen Garg and his family, while reaffirming their commitment to protecting the dignity of cultural figures and their families during vulnerable moments.
