That is my point. The name Assam
should be left alone.
But GOA has taken a resolution and
Assam Tribune and Sentinel are adopting the name Asom. According to BB Kokaidew,

Thank you for sharing that - I somehow missed that. There are at least some folks in Delhi who are taking this seriously.

I am totally ignorant about Xansee tree. Why do they cut the whole tree when you could retrieve the resin from the node by scraping?

C'da,
You are correct. The Sentinel article, also says that she is virtually alone in her protest and it is surprising, that there is no one, be it India lovers

Another surprisingly good editorial from the Sentinel.
