Work begins on developing Zubeen Kshetra

way2barak, March 17: Work has finally begun on developing Zubeen Kshetra at Hatimura in Sonapur.

Kamrup (Metro) District Commissioner Swapnil Pal said initial work on the proposed “Zubeen Kshetra” is underway, with construction of the boundary wall already started. The state government has allotted 10 bighas of land for the project, which has received official approval.

“The first phase focuses on building the boundary wall, and the Public Works Department has begun work. Subsequent phases will be decided jointly by the government and the overseeing committee,” Pal said. He added that a meeting to review the development plan was held on March 6.

At the site, a steady stream of visitors arrived from early morning, offering prayers, lighting lamps, and leaving flowers and gifts to mark six months since the singer’s death.
