As normal people will see it, ULFA
is trying to blackmail GOI and MMG is falling for it. In the process she is
loosing her own creditability.
one would say, she is acting like
David Scott who failed because he became too much biased towards the Nagas, and
the whole peace Process ultimately failed.
Is it what they are heading
for?
And Chandan has already declared
that Assam will be the looser.

Bad 'guy', I don't know, but biased, definitely. She would be jumping up
and down, and raising hell if the shoes were on the GOI.
Incidently, why is she referred to as the 'negotiator'? Why not call a
spade a spade, and come out with it, and call a 'point person' or 'peace
representative' for the ULFA.

Not true, we would just as incensed with the GOI if they were violent or
demanded huge amounts of cash.
Demanding Rs. 5000 crores may actually bankrupt ONGC or force them to
move elsewhere (and still draw upon the resources from Assam). Will that be
good for the Assamese that work there or the Rs. 1 Cr. a day they pay to the
near banrupt GOA?
Can you or Dr. Goswami justify such ludicrous and self-destructive
demands? This ain't good for Assam, the Assamese or for 'peace' talks.
Of course, one would expect a famous legend like Dr. Goswami at least
sound 'fair' when talking to the press. But what do I know, I had higher
expectations of her.

GoI can mouth off peace mantras, frothing in the mouth about how there
is no problem that could not be resolved with 'democracy', while hunting
down ULFA, without nary a whimper from the now-outraged.
What is surreal here is for the same FAIR and NEUTRAL folks to be
outraged when ULFA plays its cards.
Come on Ram. Give us a break! Who are you kidding?

Be
that as it may, the demand note to the ONGC will not hamper the peace
process since extortion by militants is not unusual."
Highlights are
mine.
I can't believe this.
"Be that as it may .......". So, is it Kay Sara, Sara,.... Dr. Goswami? or
is hope against hope that the ULFA can do what it pleases, but the GOI
must hold parleys under any circumstances.
