Big thumbs up for Wahid Da penning it right! I was thinking in the same line, but ...
When I was in Bombay, Human Rights activist will complain when a BHAI got killed in police encounter. But will never heard a word from them if same BHAI murders innocent people. I call it their purpose as: Cheap publicity.

My question to Dr Hazarika: What about the families that had to part with their near and dear ones due to the ULFA's brutality? Many of those kidnapped by the ULFA remain traceless, (for your information Dr Hazarika please see the post: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/3100) Are these families not 'human' enough so that their 'rights' could be taken up by Human rights organization like AssamWatch (UK)?

Assam Watch(UK) would like to thank the Government of Assam for intervening in time to save the lives of these determined ladies who has followed the footsteps of Mohan Das Karamchand Gandhi who went on repeated 'Fasting Protests' during the Indian independence struggle. We are very hopeful that the Assam Government will honour the written reassurances and commitments given to the ladies on doing the needful in tracing the where about of the missing persons pursuing all avenues and return them to their families as soon as possible. The ladies fasting from. 21 March 2007 have put their health in extreme jeopardy. Appropriate care need to be provided for overall well being of these ladies who have put their bodies through extreme starvation on a background of a anxiety over their beloved ones for over the last Two and a Half year and it is expected that the appropriate authorities have already taken this into consideration and continue the care needed for them without any prejudice.
