*** That has covered the gamut of the choices made available by 
desi-democrasy.  What is left to be tried? Don't tell me --- Togadia, 
Narendar Modi, right?


Awright , so WHAT would their plan be? How would they go about doing 
what you want done?


Or how about how YOU see it done? Please--don't repeat that earlier 
scheme that you had against ULFA and its sympathizers. Does not work. 
Really!


Perhaps you would consider raising a new insurgency group, one that 
would not take shelter in B'desh, so they can rid you of the 
lunigi-menace? Would that work?


I am very curious about the possibilities, having came upon a blank 
wall, sort of, long ago; other than absorbing those that came earlier 
and reducing the flow in the future. Except , WHO will perform the 
latter ? India won't. Assam has no resource it controls. Compound 
that with the hardest of all--choosing someone in Assam who can act 
independently, without acceding to the Indian system and its 
controls, which has failed you again and again.


WE will be all ears.
