Hi Mahanta da I am not aware of the earlier comments on assamnet by Deka/Kakati. I don't know whether they are two separate individuals or not. I think basic issue is much more important than that. As regards the last point of your mail, both are inextricably linked. Promoting, propagating, popularising and most importantly practising Sankardeva's philosophy in our day to day life is the best way of paying tribute to him. But at times, singing praise is also required.
