Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma announced the formation of a judicial commission to investigate the death of Zubeen Garg, a beloved cultural figure. During a Facebook live session, Sarma stated that the commission would be led by Justice Soumitra Saikia of the Gauhati High Court.

The Chief Minister urged people with information or footage concerning Garg's death to come forward and testify before the commission. Garg died mysteriously while swimming in Singapore on September 19, where he was attending the NorthEast India Festival.

The CID has already initiated an investigation into Garg's death after over 60 FIRs were lodged across Assam. The State hopes the inquiry will provide clarity on the circumstances surrounding the tragic event.
