‘Mayabini’: Kaziranga welcomes baby elephant; named after Zubeen Garg’s song

Kaziranga National Park’s new elephant calf has been named Mayabini, honouring late Assamese cultural icon Zubeen Garg. Assam’s Environment Minister Chandra Mohan Patowary announced the name, chosen after Garg’s famous song, which held deep personal significance for him. Garg’s recent death in Singapore triggered immense regional grief, making this tribute a poignant symbol of new life.
