[Assam] Say Assam - not - Asom

[Manoj Das]

Name is nothing but a sign..the same piece of land has been named variously
over time, with some changes in the boundaries.

ASSAM was one such passing reference in the course  time. Rulers have all
the might to call the area under their jurisdiction. New rulers being
democratic should not be arbitrary, rather scientific in finding an all
acceptable nomenclature.
