You are the one who asked for Referendum and said that
the freedom fighters has agreed to accept verdict of

referendum you will surely come up with these same
arguments to nullify it .

Sovereginty and a debate on it ??? So you ought to
explain us HOW Sovereign Assam will be BETTER then
today's Assam.
