Dear friends,
As I told to Mr.Umesh earlier to with my live real life example of KPSC Exam(State) at Karnataka, I was disqualified inspite of having full score. Forget your ST/SC- you should be able to write/Read anad talk local language for state jobs anywhere in India. For IPS/IAS its cadre system with 6 months time to learn local languages.
But sorowfully in Assam, if one dnt know Assamese- he will get the chair and can scold all assamese as dogs!!! This is Indian dominate dirty game.
As a ex serviceman I am liable to get job anywhere, but the local rule here is simple- know state language!! One Assamese or outsider cant buy land or settle in - KERALA, BIHAR,BENGAL. You will be chased away within night, your family will be raped or humiliated and house will be burnt. No law or Supreme court!!! Un believable, but being from military I know it. .But they can anywhere... and assam is a dharamshala.bECAUSE iNDIAN CONSTITUTION alows all only in Assam.

Sanjib-da,
I must admit your article reads well . Well written. And as a member of
the dominant community speaking for the poor and needy you are
eloquent. Now the question arises - do Bodos need ST status in Delhi or UP
jobs -- wont it help the Bodos and Nagas if their tribal status was
allowed for govt jobs in Rajasthan , Bihar, Bangalore as well.
Why should we not have Bodo govt officials in Kerala for example -
working as police and tax officials selected by the state government? Same
for Nagas. It would in integration of India and securing peace. If
today geography is the greatest obstacle in movement of people and of
growth -- think how much a Bodo or Naga can learn about software ,
technology etc and get govt jobs in Bangalore. The children thus studying in
top schools and colleges in Bangalore etc. I am just creating a
possible rosy picture if reservations were allowed for ethnic Assam/Bodo
tribals etc throughout India. When Gorkhas from Nepal can have reservations
in Indian and British Army jobs why not Bodos in Bangalore.
And if not this than why that? Why give ST status to any group in Assam
who hasn't even lived there were a thousand years. How can one call
himself "Adivasi" ( the earliest inhabitant) when he has not even been
part of the culture pre-British times?
Regards.
Umesh
