Former Assam CM late Tarun Gogoi's obsequies rites

The obsequial rites were performed with 'Naam kirtan' at Minister's colony, in Guwahati.

Speaking to media Gaurav Gogoi, son of CM Tarun Gogoi said, " It's not only my family who lost their dearest and loving member of the family. There are many families who have lost their dearest member of the family this year. Some have lost their lives fighting against Covid 19, where some have lost in a road accident. This 2020 year has been a very tough year for all."

He further said," today we have arranged Naam kirtan on the occasion of obsequial rites of my father because we have capabilities. But there are several families who cannot afford these things. So I pray for them as well that God may give them too the courage to stay strong."

The- three-time Assam CM passed away on Monday (November 23) at 05.34 pm at Guwahati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) after fighting against Covid related segments.

The last rites of the veteran Congress leader were performed on November 26 at the Navagraha crematorium.
