CM Alleges Bid to Influence Poll Mood in Zubeen Garg Case
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday alleged attempts to influence public sentiment ahead of the Assembly elections through the handling of singer Zubeen Garg’s case. The Chief Minister claimed that pressure was being exerted to transfer the case to a fast-track court and change the presiding judge to facilitate an early bail. Sarma said such moves appeared politically motivated and aimed at shaping voter perception before the polls. The remarks have triggered political reactions, with opposition leaders demanding clarity. The development has added a new political dimension to the high-profile case in Assam.
