[Assam] Enemies of India are enemies of Assam

[jkk2020 at aim.com]

Why do you say that the Assamese cannot live and grow by themselves? "A 
strong, secure, united India is the geo-political guarantee of the 
survival of Assam, which is India." This statement is just a slogan. 
"Assam, which is India": what is meant by that? An Assam which is 
exploited by India? An Assam, whose electronic and new media space is 
filled by Hindi? An Assam, where the Indian-empire-appointed governor 
is anti-Assamese? An Assam, whose daily life is controlled by 
Hindi-speaking Indian soldiers? An Assam, whose tea and oil do not 
benefit the locals?

"Enemies of India are enemies of Assam": Another meaningless slogan a 
true politician would say without meaning anything by it.

        Dear Chandan,
  
  You are right to say One thing that jumps out is the preponderance of 
certain politically motivated views and assertions that keep appearing, 
even after being thoroughly debunked, refuted or discredited.
  
  It is now obvious that people who do not take any responsibility about 
what they say are spreading "politically motivated views"  which are 
dangerous for Assam's survival.
  
  A strong, secure and united India is the geo-political guarantee of 
the survival of Assam, which is India.
  
  Enemies of India are enemies of Assam. However, the "politically 
motivated views" of these enemies are caught when they write phrases 
like "Civilian invasion by India" "Poor Bangladeshi "immigrants" 
looking for job" --- these are obviously biased & motivated opinions 
for the benefit of Bangladesh, which have been thoroughly debunked, 
refuted or discredited many times. .
  
  In the assam-net, even the Enemies of Assam should have their freedom 
of expression, but I am sure that the netters will be able to see the 
thinly covered political motivations of these irresponsible writers.
  
 With the best,
 Himendra

 Hi Himen-da,




  Have time for comment only one point for now, even though many more 
deserve a response :-):









  The atmosphere in assam-net has become very tense. Is this is a 
symptom of our internal despondency because we are in the verge of 
losing our beloved land?






  *** If it is so, it is a result of the subject-matter being dealt with 
in the posts that we have seen. One thing that jumps out is the 
preponderance of certain politically motivated views and assertions 
that keep appearing, even after being thoroughly debunked, refuted or 
discredited. That is a sure-fire recipe to draw strident responses.
