The Assam Tribune Jan 10, 2007
Letter to the Editor
Asom or Assam?
Sir - The controversy over the use of the name Asom or Assam has been in the
news for last few days. It has become confusing for a regular reader of The
Assam Tribune like me. Your editorial of January 6 issue supports the name
Assam, whereas in your paper the word Asom is used. Moreover, in the State
Government advertisements Assam is used. The Parliament has not yet ratified
the name Asom though the State Assembly passed it by voice vote. We should wait
for the approval of Parliament. - Yours etc., PRASANTA K BARUAH, Hengerabari,
Guwahati.
