Assam has a rich folk tradition, including Bihu-geet (celebratory songs for the Bihu festival), Biyanaam (marriage songs), Bon-geet (forest and nature songs), and Ojapali (narrative singing with dance). These diverse forms reflect Assam’s cultural heritage, agricultural lifestyle, and social rituals.
