Hi Nayan:
My apologies for the delay in replying to your incisive, steel-trap
questions . Here I am , humbly submitting to your inquisition
(albeit late for being out of town for the Memorial Day weekend)
without a whimper about your disappearing act whenever I ask some
questions in return. I realize you are busy deliberating on them and
will reply in 'due time' :-).
"why all these Maara Maari is acceptable"
*** To foolish people like myself, it is NOT at all acceptable that
these conflicts should have ever escalated from disgruntlement
against governmental un-responsiveness to 'andwlons' ( agitations)
and then to insurgency , warfare, secret-killings, state sponsored
terrorism, bombing of civilian targets -- you name it. I await in
dread of the next possible phase of the continuing escalation---- of
suicide bombings, tacitly supported by those who shall not accept a
negotiated political solution ( as amply demonstrated by their
pronouncements in every conceivable media).
On the other hand, I ask of you and others like you, who make up the
brain-trust of your society, if your approach, of crying rivers of
tears, while continuing to stone-wall a political solution, aren't
mere crocodile tears of those who are UNAFFECTED by the violence,
sitting pretty in your comfortable prosperity and relative security?
Your intelligence, your wisdom, becomes an issue, only because of
what YOU say and what you do ( or don't).
Will you be able to demonstrate your commitments to a peaceful
resolution of the conflict by standing up and supporting the plea of
the 'traders' published in the AT that Barta Bistar posted ?
We will be all ears.

Dada,
That was what i wanted to say. Saying directly has had no answers
nor acknowledgements. Only dangor dangor philosophy from the know it
all's as to why all these Maara Maari is acceptable in the name of
liberation of Assam. I want them to see and feel the same anguish
the family members of the innocent victims are going through.

It's sad that innocent people suffer in the all such cases. Our
condolences to the sufferers. It could be anyone, and they have
nothing to do with liberation, oppression or anything.
Some years back an Assamese family lost 5 family members in Delhi's
Saroniji Nagar bomb blast. Mr. Apurba Sarma of Nagaon, working in a
bank came for a vacation with his sister-in-law's family. Mr. Sarma
went to buy some sweets, and the other members were having 'aloo
chaat', when the bomb ripped through. 5 of them were pulverised
instantly, three badly burnt. We went to see his recuperating
survivors at Safdarjung Hospital. His youngest daughter was in ICU
and wanted to be with her mother. Mother and elder sister were no
more, and who could break the news to her? It was heart rendering.
Mr Sarma's life was devasted in a second's time. Just a second
before that moment it was full of life and fun, a moment later it
was all gone.

Dear C da,
I would like to invite you to Assam/Asom/axom (Athgaon, Fancy
Bazaar/Abroad the Brahmaputra Mail). The weather is really great.
Red is the Colour of the day. It feels really good when you take a
walk down the Bazaars. Tommorow is Guwahati Bandh. I'm sure you have
not enjoyed a Bandh for a long time. i suppose it does not happen
there in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. So why don't you accept my
invitation and come down for a prolonged visit. I will surely take
you everywhere. Will show you where the bomb blasts occured. Will
even take you to talk with the family of the victims. You can even
tell them how lucky they are to have given their beloved ones for
liberation. If you are lucky, we might even be eye witness to a few
bombings and see the RED oozing out of humanity.
Regards
Nayan

This is what I feel should happen in Assam:
President' Rule be imposed on Assam.
ULFA given a strict deadline by which to surrender and come for talks.
Bangladesh also given a deadline by which they should destroy and
hand over anti India insurgents lodged in their territory.
In the failure of the above, India launches a full scale offensive on
ULFA in NE as well as inside Bangladesh territory.
If the World reacts, it will be a good fortune for India. India has
enough evidence of how terrorists are striking India from across the
border and how Bangladesh is offering a safe sanctuary to these groups.
India should come out of it's puppet like spineless existence. If it
wants to be a superpower in the next 2 decades it should behave like
one. What is the use of spending so much of national wealth on
defense if it can't even protect it's own borders. Look at Israel, it
launched a full scale offensive against Lebanon to rescue 2 of it's
soldiers from Hezbollah.

*** Good question. Should it? I would not even go into the choice
of adjectives here.
And if not, what should be done and who should ?
Finally, HOW will that be stopped? WHO will do that ?

Just as we talk the cowards have struck again in Fancy Bazar,
