---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Sanchayita Sharma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: May 29, 2007 10:22 AM Subject: Assam on Aljazeera International To: my friends <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
First of all, thank you to all who have shown interest and have repeatedly asked and emailed me about the piece I had done on Assam recently. For those who are not aware but might like to watch it, here are the details. Due for broadcast: Wednesday,30th MAY 2007 Name of Channel: Al Jazeera International (often called AJI or Al Jazeera English) Name of the programme slot: PEOPLE and POWER (world broadcast) Duration: 21 minutes Time: Around 7 PM UK time (You might like to check "today's schedule" for the correct time in your part of the world http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/9ACBA90A-7036-44F4-87C0-754AE9ABA44E.htm ) . Pl pass it to fellow Indians/Khar Khuwas over the world. Its on AJI's most popular current affairs programme & commissioned to my friend and colleague Hazel Chandler (also an independent filmmaker)so it will be aired as her piece. The interviews in Assamese were done by me of course. P.S: There wont be any end credits as it's a current affairs piece hence I would like to officially thank everyone back in Oxom(journalists,agents, translators, friends, well wishers) who helped me with my research/contacts and made this piece possible. It's for the first time that a piece on Assam has been given a prime slot. A lot of my time and energy had gone into convincing AJI to get Assam's issue to a world audience. This piece gives a broad view about the current situation in Assam. Nothing deep or new to us but an effort from my part to the western audience about the insurgency issue in Assam as I felt there has been mixed opinions about the subject or very few people are aware that a place called Assam exists. If u can, please record a copy for me as I am in Guwahati for a very important personal visit that some of you might be aware.
