*** And so? Texas joined USA in 1845 -- later then
Assam became a part of British India. go and preach
to Uncle SAM that Texas historically was never a part
of US and so should be separated.
I fail to understand HOW some foreigners who have NOT
lived in India/Assam in 30+ years except for brief
visit as Tourists Prescribe on well being of
Assam/India.
You have no clue on what is happening in India but
pretend to be an expert.
Ask someone who is in Assam what they think about
being with India. There are people in this forum like
Chitta, Shantikam, Nayan ... who are closer to ground
zero and they DO NOT support your idea.
>>The question that ought to be asked, is WHY Assam

separate.
The people of Assam gives a damn to separation. They
do care about Progress, about employment, industry.
The Question ought to be asked is HOW Assam can
progress. We have asked in this forum a number of
times WHY you think separation will lead to a better
Assam and who could not answer. ALL you say is
Separate but WHY people will join your bandwagon ?
WHAT benefit would they have? You are not going to
leave your abode so WHO is going to lead Assam? What
is the plan? Unless you have a clear plan, unless you
can prove that Assam is going to be better by moving
out of India, you are NOT going to get a support just
by killing some innocent people.
I am sure you will avoid these and come up with some
ruse ..... but then .. that shows your thinking
ability as we saw earlier
I am just replacing one word in Rajenda's comment and
that would prfectly fit you ---

either.
>>Nor do they hold pujas for their gods and goddesses

incense in their tiny apartments.
>>I can go on and on. But so what?
>>The question that ought to be asked, is WHY Assam
wants to be
separate. Without asking that, to judge Assam in
comparison to South
Indians or anybody else, particularly in light of the
fact that Assam
NEVER was a part of India historically, only shows
one's own
inability to look at things critically.
