Assamese music legend Bhupen Hazarika's son on Monday strongly criticized the centre over the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill 2016, and called the government's move to award his father with the Bharat Ratna "a display of short lived cheap thrills". Tez Hazarika, in a statement from the US, where he lives, said he was unhappy how the centre planned to pass the "painfully unpopular" Bill which was against his father's beliefs and position.
