Well, yes Mahanta da, I am still at loss.
Please explain to me and to others like Ramda, more explicitly why you try to
make the Assamese Hindus suffer from collective guilt complex by dubbing their
anti BDesh stance as an anti Muslim one. Decrying others of being unnecessarily
sensitive to lungi menace and yourself garbing a selectively broadminded
image-this is quite beguiling!! Or is there a hidden motive and may be you also
have the same level of jingoism you accuse your fellow Assamese Hindus of
harbouring, which for the time being may be you have kept in suspended
animation for some technical reasons.
By the way, a clarification on why I used the term Assamese Hindus (at which
you jumped to emphasize that the usage of that term itself exposed every
thing-I dont know what you meant)
1) I believe amongst the Assamese speakers-they (Hindus) are still in
majority in Assam. Or do you think otherwise?
2) They are the more vocal on this issue infiltration by BDeshis
3) This feeling of paranoia is present amongst Assamese speaking Muslim also.
But their protestations are not that loud as their Hindu counterparts as they
are less in number, many come from more disadvantaged back ground. Many of
those who are economically well off, educated, learned and city bred (say from
Lakhtokiya of Guwahati), same religious affiliations and post 9/11 more
cohesive feeling make it some what difficult for them to be as vocal as their
Hindu counterparts. Most of the educated Assamese Hindus understand this
dilemma and should not have qualms about it.
So I hope it is now clear why I used the term Assamese Hindus?
CM said
*****Are only 'Assamese Hindus' burdened by illegal immigrants? Is Assam the
home of B'deshi despising Hindus only? And if they are the only ones outraged
or aggrieved, then is it ALL of Assam's Hindus or most or just a handful of
them? And is it because of:
The offenders' name?
The color of their skin?
Their cuisine?
The language they speak?
The lungis they wear and the skull-caps they flaunt?
The unkind cuts the male of their species live with?
The high wage jobs they deprive the natives of?
The economy they depress by their dependence on public charity?
The criminal activities they spread in society?
The corruption they promote by bribery of public officials?
The economic progress they thwart by their habitual sloth?
Inundate the free public health-care system?
Flood the public school system with children of the non-producing, lowering
the quality of education?
Usurp and rob the Oxomiya bhaxa of its purity and ownership?
Other ills I have not mentioned, deliberately or otherwise?
Or is it because of their religious persuasion?*****
Your numerous clues did not help me much. If the last line was your punch
line it is again the same hackneyed manifestation of your covert agenda. As I
told you many times before-it is not the religion alone. It is the religion
combined with language combined with an alien culture that has been causing the
discomfort. If there are millions of khukri wielding Saulor phut luwa Daajus
and Kaanchas also, the reaction of the local populace would have been similar.
So I am still at dark about your attempts. Please explain more explicitly and
clearly unlike those numerous inconclusive mails where you end by saying
something like I will explain later if you want or by adopting those avoiding
techniques saying that I will explain if you first answer this question.
Come on Mahanta da enlighten us on the eve of 60th Independence Day of India.
