Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal visits singer Zubeen Garg in hospital

GUWAHATI: On Saturday, Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal visited Zubeen Garg in Nemcare Hospital where he is undergoing treatment. Sonowal informed the media that he met Managing Director, Dr. Hitesh Baruah of Nemcare Hospital to learn about Zubeen’s health condition. “Zubeen’s situation is stable now. Dr. Hitesh informed me that Zubeen’s condition is improving. I hope and pray for Zubeen’s speedy recovery,” said CM Sonowal.

After collapsing during an event at Guwahati Town Club, on Friday Garg was admitted to Nemcare Hospital. The doctor said he is in a stable condition now. Garg is under observation for 24 hours. The doctor said that he has been put on a liquid diet and that he needs rest.

Meanwhile, Minister Naba Doley also visited Zubeen Garg at the hospital.

According to reports, Garg fell unconscious suddenly during an interaction with the media.

For a fact, Garg’s name has also been proposed for the upcoming Rajya Sabha Elections in Assam.

According to reports, former Chief Minister of Assam Tarun Gogoi has proposed the name of the celebrity from the state.

“I have no interest in politics but Rajya Sabha is different. Well-known faces are sent to Rajya Sabha from different states. Let me think about it. Right now, I can’t comment on this, let me reach Guwahati,” he said.

He has lent his voice to an English music video with an aim to garner global support against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). The music video titled “Motherland” focuses on the ongoing socio-political situation of Assam and the rest of the Northeast, which has been made available on YouTube recently. The video is a product of band Cosmic Horizon.

Zubeen is now a familiar face of the ongoing anti-CAA protests across the State. The singer has been criticizing both the Centre and Assam Government for bringing the Act. He has been uniting the artists’ community to join the ongoing movement.
