Wow, At Guwahati (we are here) - there has been a lot of media coverage (both English/Assamese). I have heard there has some TV coverage too.
At last something positive is coming about. Some people I met, commented that the GOA will back out after a little resistance. --Ram On 1/4/07, Rajen & Ajanta Barua <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
