It is significant that elusive Ulfa (I) chief Paresh Baruah had also raised similar objection and warned the popular singer to refrain from singing Hindi songs at any Bihu celebrations in 2016.

In a shocking incident, noted singer from Assam Zubeen Garg stormed off the stage after the organisers objected to a Hindi song that he sang while performing in Guwahati during a Bihu festival.

Interrupting a performance of "Dil Tu Hi Bata" from "Krish 3", the organizing members argued that a Bihu stage doesn't allow any non-Assamese songs to be rendered.

The large audiences, which had gathered for his concert, vociferously rallied behind the singer. According to them, the singer was well-informed that he would not be able to sing Hindi songs and even agreed to the condition. I have sung over 16,000 songs in the past 25 years, I don't care about your restrictions", the "Ya Ali " singer said, reported HT.

"I am an artiste and music has no language". So, barring him from singing in different languages, after knowing everything, is insulting.

Bihu marks beginning of the Assamese new year when stage functions showcasing songs and dances of the state's various tribes are organised. "I leaving the show", Garg told the organiser before leaving. Please sing Assamese song.

Zubeen was singing a self-composed song. "We are not opposed to any language, but bihu is not for singing Hindi songs", said Madhu Ranjan Nath, president of the Noonmati Bihu Sanmilan, Express reported.
