[Assam] Say Assam - not - Asom

[Barua25]

Names are like dress. Good dress looks good.
A 'bhusung-pohu' name like 'Asom' gives a 'bhusung-pohu' impression for the people of Assam.
It also shows the poverty of intellect of the Assamese people.
As some one rightly said, there will not be any Assamese in Asom, it will be full of Aso-Miyas.
If India can have names India and Bharat
West Bengal can have West Bengal and Posim-Bongo
What is the problem for Assam having names Assam and Oxom?
Let Assam concentrate on its real problem.
Let Assam not create new problems.

  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.

    Attaching a scanned copy of a news item that has appeared in "Protidin" regarding the name "Asom".  The view from AGP Leader Atul Bora.
    According to our information GOA is to revoke the decision to change the name of the State - much to the sorrow of  Mr. Chandra Prasad Saikia, The Tribune Press (Assam Tribune & Gariyashi) and the Sentinel.
    Good for Assam.
