Dear Kuladip, This was exactly what I said a few months back --- but the topic was dropped. I am grateful to you for reviving this vital life-saver: WE MUST HAVE AN ALL-INDIA NEWS PAPER !!
I welcome entrepreneurs like Manoj Das and others to take leadership. I'll buy stock once they float it. Everyone else who love Assam will buy stock. The newspaper will be a grand success very soon. With love to all, Himendra ----- Original Message ----- From: kuladip baro To: assamonline@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, September 06, 2008 2:32 PM Subject: [asom] Bihar is suffering due to flood:- Assam always suffers (Yearly festival!!!) "Flood in Bihar is in national/Internatio nal focus:- many people from media in India are from Bihar??? " True. The situation in Bihar was highlighted unproportionately much more in Hindi News channels while Assam's situation was overlooked. Though it is unfair you can't help. All the people are selfish more or less naturaly. We need some national media (TV channels, News papers in Hindi & English) widely circulated/seen in India/abroad, predominently manned by Native Assamese, if we have to highlight our problems (Flood, Bangladeshi etc.) properly since NETV and Newslive are only meant for the region only. Assamese competant enterprising people may think on the above line. -Kuladip
