[Assam] Re: Truth?? police encounter shooting in UK metro
I am sorry if my comments have caused you any offence. That was certainly not my intention. Perhaps it would have been more accurate if I had stated that the incidents with the Indian army occur with worrying regularity rather than "all the time". By my comments, I am not seeking to make a direct comparison between the situation in the UK and India. However I would suggest that a balanced picture needs to be drawn. Whilst I now live in the UK, I am an Indian by birth. I am not, by my comments seeking to criticise my homeland, far from it -- I love the country where I was born and raised. However and perhaps because of this, I simply can not ignore the obvious and worrying situation which I see and hear about each time I return. You have requested examples. I would suggest that you simply consider the numerous incidents that are frequently reported in the local newspaper covering the area. It was the Indian army in Assam (CRPF Jawans) who rapes tribal women in villages while they raid their houses looking for militants every now and again. The killing of Ranjit Borpujari at one of the hostel at Cotton College in that July morning 1960 is still fresh in my memory. I was only a school girl. On that occasion there was a protest demanding Assamese language to be officially recognised. As the procession passed the Second Mess in Panbazar, number of young boys were playing table-tennis at the forecourt of the hostel. As another young boy (still in his pyjamas) coming out of a room, the S.P. gave an order to shoot. Shots were fired at the group and the boy who was coming out of the room was shot in the back of the head and subsequently died. He was Ranjit Borpujari -- an innocent young student. Was there a detailed inquiry or investigation ? was the officer who gave the order prosecuted or arrested or even reprimanded for his actions ? I do not know. All I knew that he was simply transferred out of Assam. This incident remains with me to this day, not least as one of my maternal uncle Amar Hazarika (Manju mama) who is a champion table-tennis player of Assam was also heavily injured along with others -- as a result. During Assam agitation in 1980, young boy Khageshsar Talukdar was killed in Barpeta when again the S.P. gave an order to shoot at a peaceful demonstration. Whilst I appreciate that this incident occurred many years ago, incidents like these sadly continue up to the present day. There are numerous similar reported incidents where innocent young men are killed by the Indian army when they are looking for ULFA or similar. These incidents are simply recorded as men "... killed on encounters." A short cold phrase frequently used to cover a multitude of sins. At the end of the day we are agreed that recent shooting in London was extremely sad and unfortunate and I appreciate that you support my stance on this issue. Perhaps we should now draw a line under this matter. Hopefully we can agree that there are elements of good and bad in all countries and all cultures and that it is important that people question incidents where human life is violated or taken away, particularly where it arises from an "abuse of power".

I am sorry if my comments have caused you any offence. That was certainly not my intention Of course, I do understand that you had intention was not to offend. I also understand that being close to 'ground-zero' would change anyone's prespective on such matters. And no offence taken. Some points though: The case of Borpujari,if I remember correct, involved the CRPF (Andhra), and again not the Indian Army. Having been a boarder of 3rd Mess for a number of years, we too would get chills as we passes by 2nd Mess everyday. the S.P. gave an order to shoot That in it self should clue us in that it wasn't the army. The Army and the CRPF are totally different forces. In India, only in dire circumstances is the army deployed. The reason is to keep them at a distance from the public and use them primarily in the country's defence and national security. The same with Khargeswar Talukdar. We were students at that time and if did affect all of us deeply. Again it wasn't the army. Now, have army personnel ever been on the wrong side? Absolutely, and one can cite many examples. But the example I was looking for was if there was a 'standing policy' that the Indian Army had to shoot-to-kill? I seriously doubt that. As for the rapes etc, when individual soldiers go berserk, the Indian Military Courts of Justice, just does not give them a pat on their backs and send them on their way. These MCJ is extremely strict, and punishments are severe, and not publized at all. To sum it up, what I was trying to get to is this: The 3 cops chasing the Brazillian were basically following POLICY when they shot the young man when he was down on the ground, (obviously surrendered), and that too 7 times to the head at point blank range (because the policy states that shooting on the chest may trigger an explosion etc etc). My problem is more to do with a policy terribily gone wrong and not so much with the cops on the beat. There is another thing. If the cops in India had been in a similar situation, I have little doubt that the whole Western Hemisphere would be tellling the Indians how to apprehend and capture terrorists and avoid killing innocent bystanders.

RE: [Assam] raging in AEC (1 sem)
It is my feeling that asking for disciplinary action on students is not enough. The administrators of the college simply have no incentives to implement these measures beyond some issue of circulars and threats - perhaps under extreme pressure, some expulsions of scapegoats (sometimes rather unfairly - the student least likely to have muscle power for example). It is the administrators that have allowed this level of violence to be reached. It certainly wasn't as bad in the pasr. Their standard defense - we are scared of the students. The way out is to follow up credible public evidence on ragging with firing of administrators - the principals and hostel wardens. You cannot imagine how much good these people are capable of doing, how bold they can get, when their own job is truly on the line.

[Assam] Innocent man spends 14 years in jail ! - AT
Shocking case of justice going from bad to worse. Glad that BiplapSharma rendered the right verdict and his direction to allow cases tobe filed against govt. entities for unlawful imprisonment. Innocent man spends 14 years in jail !From Our Law Reporter GUWAHATI, July 29 – In a sensational case, the Gauhati High Courttoday came to the rescue of a person wrongfully dumped for long 14years in jail and directed to make him a free man and also payment ofcompensation and cost for his illegal detention. This man's family wasnot informed about his arrest nor was he ever taken to any court. Hewas made to represent a man missing from custody. The court of Justice B K Sarma further directed that the officials ofthe Meghalaya Government involved in the case should also be proceededagainst for their causing unlawful detention of Rusith D Sangma in thename of Deep Charan Kaipang. After a detailed investigation, the court came to the conclusion thaton or around July 11, 1994, accused Deep Charan Kaipang along withother under trial prisoners were taken to the Court of CJM, Shillongand Deep Charan Kaipang was never brought back to the jail on July 11,1994 and was instead substituted by Rusith D Sangma. The case taken up at the instance of Advocate S P Mahanta of Shillong.Mahanta pleaded that Rusith Sangma was never officially lodged in theDistrict Jail, Shillong or in Tura Jail after November 22, 1990a andinstead he was lodged in Jail by the name of Deep Charan Kaipang. Hewas identified by a co-prisoner Hevel Avel Koly to be another personand not Deep Charan Kaipang. It was found that due to the negligence and dereliction of duties onthe part of the Shillong District Jail staff, the actual accused DeepCharan Kaipang was not back to the jail after being sent out forproduction in the court. Then Snagma was presented as Deep CharanKaipang to make it a case of re-lodging in the jail. Justice Sarma examined the evidence of various officials of MeghalayaGovernment and found that possibly Kaipang died an unnatural death andto suppress it Sangma was found be the easy scapegoat. And RusithSangma had to spend 14 valuable years of the prime of his life in jailwithout any trial and also in substitution of another accused whomight have died an unnatural death. The High Court found that Rusith Sangma is the victim of capriciousacts perpetrated by officials of the Meghalaya Government. The courtopined that it was fit that the State Government of Meghalaya couldpay an amount of Rs 2 lakh by way of compensation to Sangma. The court permitted Advocate S P Mahanta who has espoused the cause ofSangma, to ensure deposit of the amount of compensation in a bankaccount as may be suitable for Sangma. Justice Sarma further directed that Sangma be provided all medicalfacilities as and when required. He also permitted the MeghalayaGovernment to realise the amount to be paid to Sangma from thesalaries of its erring officials in this case. The court also placed on record the commendable efforts of AdvocateMahanta and Additional District Judge, Shillong as well as the effortsof Tanmoy Behra, DSP, CBI for assisting the court in renderingassistance to Sangma. The High Court further directed imposition of acost of Rs 15,000 on the Meghalaya Government and directed the saidamount to be paid to Advocate Mahanta not only for his sincereservices and also for the expenses incurred by the Advocate. It was also directed by the High Court that the Meghalaya HomeDepartment should ensure that all measures be taken for checkingrecurrence of such incidents in the state in future. ___ Assam mailing list Assam@pikespeak.uccs.edu http://pikespeak.uccs.edu/mailman/listinfo/assam Mailing list FAQ: http://pikespeak.uccs.edu/assam/assam-faq.html To unsubscribe or change options: http://pikespeak.uccs.edu/mailman/options/assam

Quit India" movement in Assam http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/7454_1446371,000800050001.htm on Friday declared it would launch a "Quit India" movement in Assam, against Bangladeshis illegally living the state. Speaking at a press conference in Hojai on Friday afternoon, national coordinator of the Bajrang Dal, Prakash Sharma said that the movement would begin from August 14 and continue up to August 30 and that "each and every illegal Bangladeshi migrant will have to leave the state" within the period. He, however, assured that no Hindu would be asked to leave as "India is one country which is accepted as the last safe place by all Hindus". Sharma said that all the people who had come to the state after 1950 were foreigners but also added that "all Muslims are not enemies of our organisation". "It is only those who disturb the unity and integrity of the country whom we consider to be our enemies," he said.
