Instead of mocking, why don't you attempt to refute or rebut the
reasons I have cited, any number of times, for my conclusions?
I know that would require thinking, which I notice that some of
us get head-aches from. But trust me, it won't hurt.
That would demonstrate that you are able to do more than go
"--nah---nah-nah, boo-boo-". Wouldn't that be nice?

One school of thought is that the bundhs in Assam are being conspired by the Assamese people (ULFA+ AGP + theAssamese public all together) to frustrate the GOI so that they will declare defeat and get out of Assam.

Ah-ha!!
The essence of the Bundh Culture in Assam: is the Absurdity of Indian governance in Assam.
Hei GOI you cannot rule here. Your rule simply brings the Bundh Culture in Assam. We all, ULFA, Govt Employees and Media, all Assamese, we are all together united here in supporting the Bundh culture. You don't have a chance. This is not Gujarat, this is Assam, Oxom (unequal). Remember, the Moghols could not win Assam even after attacking 17 times. You better call it quit. If you don't quit the Bundh Culture will continue. We are Assamese here.
Ah-ha!!

The 'bandh or hartal culture' has reached such a farcical height in Assam that a month does not seem complete without a bandh. If the trend continues unchecked, the state of Assam would soon earn the moniker 'bandh belt' of India. The propensity of the political parties and the trade unions to organize bandhs, even at the drop of a hat, is well known and does not need reiteration.
Since bandhs have become too common these days, there is a need to check the inclination of the political parties and the trade unions to call for a bandh on flimsy grounds, making people to participate in a bandh under duress. If the States like Maharashtra and Kerala can crack whip against bandhs, why can't Assam do the same? In fact, the Bombay High Court (June 2004) ordered two political parties (BJP- Shiv Sena) to shell out Rs 20 lakhs each as financial compensation for having held Mumbai to ransom on July 30, 2003. If only a call for bandh starts costing the organizer an arm and a leg, will then they begin to realise that there is more than one way to skin a cat. After all, there are a hundred ways to vent out one's disgust and a bandh is not one of them.
