It was Kalpa Lazmi who had been beside Dr. Hazarika in his efforts to make Assamese culture and melody outside the State and abroad, they said. “Taking that into account, it’s imperative on the part of Assam Government to bear the expenditure of her treatment. We demand Dispur to bear the expenditure of the ailing film director,” a statement issued by the students’ body said.
