Altaf Hossain, known for his controversial version of Bihu songs, was arrested for allegedly inciting hostility against the state's ethnic communities through his song.

The lyrics of the controversial song bore a resemblance to a Bangladeshi protest song "Desh Ta Tomar Baaper Naki" by Ethun Babu and Mousumi Chowdhury, which meant 'Does the country belong to your father'.

Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma reacts to the arrest:

"To integrate well into society, one must respect its core characteristics. If anyone promotes our civilisation, traditions, or cultural practices in a way that deviates from our norms, it will not be accepted. For example, if Bihu were to be altered into 'Miya Bihu', it would not be accepted by the Assamese people," he said.
