Congress leader Rahul Gandhi paid tribute to Assam's cultural icon Zubeen Garg at his cremation site in Guwahati, sharing a personal connection to Mount Kanchenjunga - a symbol the late singer identified with. Gandhi planted a 'nahor' sapling and promised the family that the truth behind Zubeen's death in Singapore would be pursued, while Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma noted the delayed timing of Gandhi's visit.
