Bongaigaon: A group of artistes staged demonstration on Monday at North Salmara subdivision office. The two-hour long demonstration was staged by the Musicians Welfare Society and Lower Assam Sound Association to demand permission for organizing cultural programmes in the State.
The artistes said that since the beginning of lockdown, no cultural programmes were organized anywhere and as a result, the artistes were facing economic problems. "As the government has allowed political meetings, cultural programmes should also be permitted. Otherwise, we will be compelled to adopt the path of agitation," he said.
