The demand to confer Bharat Ratna to Bhupen Da is merely an emotional outburst. He is Ratna of highest degree and the people across the globe prove that by unprecedented outpouring to pay their last respect to the legend. The people who decide to whom Bharat Ratna be given have nothing to do other than doing politics. Bhupen Da doesnot need any award from the Political quarter. He resides in our heart and more than mere Bharat Ratna.

Awards should be given and not demanded . No doubt Dr. Hazarika deserves the highest , but certain people of Assam demanding it is extremely embarrasing.If felt so strongly , then an award be instituted by the state.
bhupen da should be honoured with bharat ratna.govt.of india is requested to confer the title.we also should follow his works and ideas for the people particularly for mass people for whom he dedicated most of the songs.we should keep his work alive for another thousand years like we remembering sankardeb. long live bhupenda and your contribution to us.bhagabane tomak santi aru sukhat rakhak. aiye mor prarthana.a.k.sutradhar.guwahati

Bharat Ratna should be confered to the true universal citizen Dr. Bhupen Hazarika, from Assam
Bhupenda sang for a seamless world from Luit (Brahmaputa) to Mississipi, Ottowa to Austria Spoke of confluence of the ideology of Maxim Gorky and Twain. A true universal citizen, the gypsy (zazabor) from Assam.
You will always live among us. I am not an Assamese but that should not stop me from stating that he was one of the greatest singers we heard. The melody, the resonating voice, the sensible lyrics - he created magic with all these. Now when I have hardly any one to seek support from in a foreign land, I draw lot of solace from him. Thanks Dada for such beautiful songs which make me forget my solitude, my sorrow and sense of helplessness. May his soul rest in peace.
