Can Niloy Gogoi help with answers to these questions please?: (a) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit was born? (b) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit had died? (c) Saraighat battle ended with a treaty, was it signed by Atan Burhagohain? (d) On what date Atan Burhagohain was executed and for what reason(s)? Referring to Himendra's email see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4850 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4850 Surya Kumar Bhuyan did not answer above questions, or please direct me to right pages' numbers. Referring to Manoj Das's email see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4837 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4837 Why Manoj calls 'Sarcastical' to a valid question is probably because he does not have editing/reviewing experiences :) It is not uncommon to ask for review comment to a knowledgeable person. It's up to Sanjoy to respond to the question, i.e., not Manoj, but I welcome Manoj to answers the above questions. And regarding his appeal for respect: Shouldn't we respect everybody irrespective of age? [But I welcome Manoj to educate me why my writing lacks respect.] see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4837 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4837

I don't know the answers, Deka! You will have to find a real good history scholar for this research. My knowledge of history is from reading books many years ago, and I am now working from my memory --- please correct me whenever I am wrong --- I urge the younger generation to read history books --- the books of Surya Kumar Bhuyan are marvellous --- we Assamese are very grateful to him. With love to all, Himendra -- Original message -- From: deka deka...@gmail.com do not apologize Himendra you are aggressively marketing your ideas and you have aggressive sales rep manoj das with you too :) but take little moment to answer my questions: (a) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit was born? (b) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit had died? (c) Saraighat battle ended with a treaty, was it signed by Atan Burhagohain? (d) On what date Atan Burhagohain was executed and for what reason(s)? see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4842

Dear Manoj, I read your parody on our ICON, and it is truly hilarious. I translated it to a Polish colleague of mine with the context, and he laughed a lot too ... Now coming back to serious matter, are you guys in sync with planning commission or Assam government? In my last conversation with our CM in 2007, he specifically mentioned about expanding Guwahati towards Mirza. In Kamrup, Bhatta Dev, Hari Dev, and Damodar Dev had a lot of positive influence in spreading Vaishnava culture. Bhatta Dev was the first person in North Bengal and Northeastern region who started writing in prose. There are other people like Banikanta Kakati who are true hero's in this region. I will follow up with you privately. Regards, Dhiraj Manoj Das dasm...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Dhiraj, This bridge is necessary for the Northward expansion of the city, which is now cramped; and ultimate conversion of Guwahati into a metropolis with a population of say, 15 millions by 2050. The mighty river will be able to provide the water and the breathing space. The funds will come from ADB and Govt. of Assam's savings. The city will bring prosperity to the North side and open up opportunities, jobs, market, infrastructure projects etc. It will be an 8-lane bridge. Also we'll need a fortress city to preserve our culture, in case the Bangladeshis overran us completely. Naming ultimately doesnot add much value, if some regular brands like Rajiv Gandhi, Indira, Nehru are used. Aton, Bhagadatta, Narakasura, Chilarai (I am not in favor of him as his brother already got the Pancharanta bridge) will excite the ignorant minds to know about these illustriouscharacters and dig them out of history. About our icon, I found an apt parody :) Korotolo Komolo, Modor Botolo, Logoto Motoro, Kotoro Kotoro, Uthoyo Bohoyo, Ubhoto Bosono Boloyo onorgolo Gamono Karoyo Dholongo Polongo Ponkoto Poroyo!

Manoj, Is this bridge necessary? How is this project be funded? If the funding comes from government, can we think about a better way to utilize this public money so that it can create jobs for poor people with a minimal or no education? I have said multiple times. Naming a road or a bridge after Atan Buragohain or someone else is not going to uplift Assamese people. I agree with you on an ICON mentioned in this email thread. He had to be carried from street multiple times after he was drunk. Regards, Dhiraj Manoj Das dasm...@gmail.com wrote: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4843

: Lachit Borphukan is representing greater Assamese community ; not Ahom alone as Mahatma Gandhi is representing India not Gujrati alone. : Theme is not Lachit and Gandhi, but Atan Burhagohain and Chakradhwaj Singha! Himendra is using Lachit like a 'promotional/marketing code' in order to sell his ideas of marble statue of his Swargadev Chakradhwaj Singha, and Atan Buragohain Sako. There must be reasons why Himendra Manoj et al or other members are not answering following questions including Dibya :) (a) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit was born? (b) What place in Assam and on what date Lachit had died? (c) Saraighat battle ended with a treaty, was it signed by Atan Burhagohain? (d) On what date Atan Burhagohain was executed and for what reason(s)? If you place Lachit's statue in some places you will only insult the brave soul. And let's do not compare Gandhi with any Ahom-administrators, including those during past 3 decades (Ahom - of or related to Ahom kingdom). As before, see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4822 No *Ahom names* should be chosen to name/rename projects roads villages towns etc in greater Kamrup under all circumstances. It is not right to do so. By doing so, it will *only demonstrate Ahom-bulling*, not Assamese-bravery. Just like in *California *where all roads bridges projects etc names have been Spanish (including the brand-new or under construction) -- those in greater Kamrup should be all *Kamrupi including Baro Rabha Saranya etc*. : expecting one great Warriar to evolved from the Greater Kamrup to lead Assam in our next war against Bangladeshi jehadis (possibly within 2050) and protect us from the Bangladeshi butchers. Then our next generation will gracefully construct one Mighty Bridge over Brahmaputra in his / her honour. : It is good to have dreams! [Let's slow down on Extreme Righteous Assamese (ERA) syndrome. Let's try to look at scenarios of population-segments' using Geographical Indications -- in order to better understand which population-segment is doing what] During past 3 decades, the administrations that running Assam Govt have been Ahom-admins. If these admins would have been *serving India Constitution* there would have been no scenarios of the sort now we see in Assam. Even if Ahom-admins' start serving India Constitution from now on 'possibly within 2050' scenarios (as Dibya expects) will never happen. Do you want to let trouble come because you want next generation will gracefully construct one Mighty Bridge over Brahmaputra in his / her honour? Or do you want Ahom-admins start *serving India Constitution*? From greater Kamrup all the ethnic Kamrupi Assamese together can not send enough MLAs anymore owing to Ahom-admins' protocol-centric 'new Ahom Assamese' rapid population growth tactic in greater Kamrup. So Assam Govt is all set to go with Ahom-admins 'possibly until 2050' or earlier! Re: dibya's email: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4824

Ikons get made onwards their journey, no one except himself made Sachin Tendulkar. Brand Ambassadors carry message and trust of the Brand- what is ONE COMMON brand of all the people? Bhupen Hazarika or Zubeen .. is a brand of their own talent; doesn't mean everyone in Assam is a great vocal singer; so doesn't it mean everyone in Assam is a terrorist. State of Assam has its own brands like Assam Tea, One honrned Rhino etc. but these are brands that represent the state not people. Nor is it a good idea to lable everyone with one brand.

What is this Gandhi was made by the British, but I am made by my forefathers who hoed this Golden Valley ? What is the basis of your statement Gandhi was made by the British ? You have successfully changed the subject and derailed the original discussion. However, I'll like to know the basis of your statement Gandhi was made by the British. With the best wishes, Himendra

For any community to progress there have to be a few role models for the youth to follow. In todays Assam there seems to be a dearth of such role models. Lachit Barphukan,Lakshminath Bezbaruah,Jyotiprasad,Bishnu Rabha belong to previous generations-heroes no doubt but not flesh and blood to whom todays generation can relate to. Perhaps Bhupen Hazarika is the only living legend of Assam to whom todays Assamese youth can look up to. Bengal has its Ganguly,Amartya Sen,Bipasha Basu and so on.Maharashtra has Sachin,Gavaskar and so on.The gujratis have their Ambanis,Modi-the super CM,Irfan and Yusuf-the cricketer brothers. Sadly India's north-east seems to be lacking in such icons.Let the community nurture and promote talent in a big way-encourage every good effort and result acheived by our citizens. The media plays a very big role in creating and sustaining a positive image. Schools,colleges and guardians have to play a major role in creating the right environment for leaders to grow.

Gone through the article; beautifully written. I was not aware of Atan Buragohain's role in Sarighat's battle before . The idea on 'Atan Buragohain Sako' is praiseworthy. We have been hearing about a proposed rope way for long. But have no idea it's present situation. It would be a land mark for Guwahati as well as a tourist hotspot. Such rope way has been constructed in some places like Sikkim to attract tourist and there shoudl not be any reason why Guwahati should not have any? It was a landmark in Indian history and crores of ruppess h ave been invested/ wasted in many parts of India / Delhi to preserve historical importance. Recognising Saraighat battle by Indian Historiam would bring NE closer to India's mainsteam. BTw, can anyone designs the Sako? Wouldn't it be fine if students be instructed to draw/ pepare model it in any drawing/ modelig competiton ? What would be it's tentative cost?

Dear Dibya, Thank you for appreciating the SAKO. However, it will never be a ropeway. A bridge (or for that matter any structure) should NOT foul up the environment and the ambience of the space : People feel their bridge in its entire environment. It may be necessary to regain the natural environment of the site by relocating some old British administrative buildings that ruined the riverbank. I urge the artists and architects and bridge engineers of Assam to imagine a graceful bridge with poetry in its geometry as a permanent and constant reminder of what we achieved in the past. Atan Buragohain Sako is not for crossing a river. It will take us across three centuries of Time to fill our heart with hope, glory, self-confidence, self-sacrifice and a strong dete rmination. I most earnestly urge the artists and architects and bridge engineers of Assam to come up with a timeless composition. Your ideas of inviting young people to come up with model --- to hold a model competition --- are excellent. I hope these ideas will gain momentum. With love to all, Himendra PS: By the way, with some help from friends, I found the article in my computer and I am now attaching it. I hope someone will write a poem about Swargadev Chakradhwajsingha --- the King who discovered Lachit --- and imagine with me a west facing marble statue of Swargadev Chakradhwaj Singha to replace the existing pillar on the rock of Urvashi. When seen from the steps of Kacharighat in Guwahati on a clear afternoon, this pure white statue, lighted by a setting sun, will shine bright against the deep green background of Umananda.
