Assamese singer Angarag Papon Mahanta popularly known as Papon surrounded himself with an unfortunate controversy. It all began with the backstage Holi celebration of a TV reality show 'Voice India Kids' where the singer went live on Facebook along with his team. By that time, the singer who went to kiss the minor girl contestant on cheeks ended up kissing her on lips accidentally as she quickly turned towards him at that moment.

Just after that Papon even came forward to apologize on Facebook saying that its all a matter of faulty camera angles and an accidental move. Moreover, the minor girl came forward to speak on this entire controversy and she said, "He kissed me like he would kiss his own child. My mother and my father also kiss me lovingly so there is nothing wrong about it." Even the minor girl's family along with every contestant on the show is in support of the singer.

Things got worst when Supreme Court advocate Runa Bhuyan shot sent a letter to the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights alleging the singer's act as "inappropriate". The female advocate filed a complaint against him under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) later issued a notice to the singer Papon. The minor girl's father took his stand and said "Papon sir is a mentor and a father figure to my daughter and has always encouraged her to pursue her dreams. He doesn't differentiate amongst the children who are here and gives them equal guidance on pursuing their dreams."
