The Assam police have been asked by the Assam State Commission for Women (ASCW) to investigate upon the sexually explicit remark made by singer Zubeen Garg on actor Nishita Goswami.

Over Zubeen Garg’s comment on the actress at during Prag Cine Award Show 2021 in Guwahati recently, a suo moto cognizance was taken. The women panel asked the police to do an investigation and report to the Commission.

The Commission has sent a copy of its instruction to the DGP.

LGBTQ rights activist Milin Dutta claimed that the singer did not give him a chance to speak and misbehaved on stage.

Dutta was toned down by Zubeen when he went to say a few lines about the motivation behind producing a film on the LGBTQ community.

“Society should step in and condemn such incidents before they become a part of the public psyche,” he said.
