|November 07, 2025
Assam Chief Information Commissioner Bhaskar Jyoti Mahanta, whose brother Shyamkanu has been arrested in Zubeen Garg's death case, on Thursday resigned from his post after an RTI was filed seeking data related to government funds given to his younger sibling.
In a long post on Facebook, Mahanta, also the former DGP of Assam, announced his resignation and said that he has already forwarded the letter to the Governor.
"You all know that my brother Shyamkanu Mahanta has been linked to the recent death of everyone's beloved artiste Zubeen Garg.
"In this context, my conscience was telling me that if someone applies for any information about my brother, I should resign from my responsibilities in order to avoid any doubts and suspicions in people's minds," he wrote in the post.
