**** And that means what?
What is that adult franchise sired govt . doing for Assam's development?
Shouldn't we ask that first, instead of asking that of Ruby who does not have
power, does not have resources, and doers not control the population with
military force?
Are we unable to muster even that bit of common sense?

Umesh,you have raised the most poignant and relevant question. Despite a
miserable track records of successive Govt.of Assam in day-to-day
administration or in law-and-order or civic affairs----subjects in which the
Center just can't and does not poke its nose---ULFA is issuing the call for
sovereignty.Sovereignty for what ? For running personal fiefdoms ?
The call to hold a plebiscite is unwarranted.We have a Government out there
in Assam,elected by the universal adult franchise inspite of the fact that the
ULFA gave a clarion call to boycott the election. KJD

Mr Ruby,
What is your plan for Assam's development - since you say you want Assam's
development?

Hon'able netter,
We felt it necessary to add our comment to the above discussion thread
between Ram Sarangapani and Chandan Mahanta. Yes indeed, the ULFA is still
totally committed, as before, to honour the verdict of a plebiscite on the
restoration of the Sovereignty of Asom held under the auspices of the United
Nations. The ULFA certainly
made this declaration before anybody else. Bringing this up in this
discussion forum by yourselves is very commendable. But we would like to make
it clear here that we do not want any migrant from India, Bangladesh, Nepal,
Myanmar etcetera since 1947 to take part in this
plebiscite in defining the future direction of Asom. Ram Sarangapani, you
are a regular contributor in the AssamNet forum. Your explicit expression of
support to stand by
Assam (Asom)and her people reflects your wisdom.
There are many who may not support the ULFA, but, the most important thing is
for all is to standby
the people of Asom. We would like to ask you not to support the views and
actions of the selfish ones who are just taking advantage of the situation.
Instead, be with the majority and work for real peace to return to Asom.

are for an end to the conflict, and ULFA agrees to abide by the verdict of the
people, why do you invent excuses like that to avoid the plebiscite, unless you
really do not believe what you profess, that the people don't want sovereignty?

enough to know that I don't carry water for anybody - GOI included. And does it

seriously think its a red-herring for anyone interested in the well-being of
Assam (both the pro/against sovereignty people). I think the results of a
plebicite will not be helpful to anyone. It will lead to a much bigger, and
unmanageable mess from which Assam will never get out of.Each side will bicker
and moan about fraud, etc and a toothless UN
can't do a lick. >Dilli has a billion people behind it. The people of Assam
need yOU far more than Dilli does. Thanks, C'da. But, you misunderstand, I am
on Assam's side as opposed to being on Dilli's side. Now, what I am not sure of
is being on ULFa's side is synonymous with seeking Assam's interests? :) And,
C'da, Assam needs you more than they will ever need me. --Ram --Ram On

place those who are for Assam's continued servitude in a huge majority and thus
pave the way for a plebiscite to put an end to the speculations, wouldn't it?
Why even bother about Assam Public Works' house to house interrogation poll?

Jeeez.. only 5% support sovereignty and this movement? Thats bad even from a
poll that one doesn't trust. It is encouraging to note that that some 43%
sent in their votes thru surface mail. Any reasons why the PCG did not
publish the results? Also, does this result in any way match up with those
conducted by the Assam Public Works (or Service) group?
