The Assam government has decided to approach the Gauhati High Court seeking the establishment of a fast-track court to expedite the trial in the death case of popular singer Zubeen Garg, officials said on Friday.
According to sources, the move aims to ensure that the investigation and trial proceed swiftly, providing timely justice in the high-profile case that has attracted significant public attention. The government’s petition will request the court to direct the creation of a dedicated fast-track bench to handle all proceedings related to the matter.
Officials added that the state government is committed to a transparent legal process and wants to avoid unnecessary delays that could arise in conventional court timelines. Law enforcement agencies are already coordinating with the judiciary to facilitate smooth proceedings once the court takes up the matter.
The case has generated widespread public interest, and authorities emphasised that justice must be delivered efficiently while adhering strictly to legal procedures. Further details on the court’s response are expected in the coming weeks.
