In the USA,each state elects two senators,regardless of its size or population,which adds upto 100 senators, representing 50 states.Mr.Bezborua is right about the unequal representation of the Indian Parliament.New Delhi is a turf,dominated mostly by the heartland states and in that ambiance, a significant smack cannot be produced by the representatives of the peripheral states.
About Assam Watch--The focus of all the important human rights groups like Amnesty International,World Watch,Helsinki Watch,Human rights Watch ( these are NGOs,unlike Human Rights Commission which is an autonomous body,created by an act of Parliament) have been on the rights of a human being and seek to protect an individual against an mighty state.To the best of my knowledge,they donot advocate dismemberment of long-established political units.By the way,I donot have any knowledge about the writer ( I mean,Mr Ludra).KJD
