Hundreds of thousands pay tribute to Indian singer

(Reuters) - Hundreds of thousands of mourners, including Bollywood stars and politicians, gathered on Wednesday for the cremation of one of India's most famous folk singers, Bhupen Hazarika, who helped popularize the culture of the country's remote northeast.

Known for portraying the social life of Assam and speaking for the poor, the 85-year-old Hazarika was a poet, composer, singer, author and film-maker.
