Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday claimed the Congress-led opposition paid the price for "politicising" musician Zubeen Garg's death in the Assembly polls as they were rejected by the people.
He visited Garg's cremation ground, 'Zubeen Khetra' at Kamarakuchi in Sonapur on the outskirts of Guwahati to pay tribute to the musician who died in Singapore on September 19 last year while swimming in the sea.
