******That should pretty much place those who are for Assam's continued
servitude in a huge majority and thus pave the way for a plebiscite to put an
end to the speculations, wouldn't it?*****
*****IF you are for an end to the conflict, and ULFA agrees to abide by the
verdict of the people, why do you invent excuses like that to avoid the
plebiscite, unless you really do not believe what you profess, that the people
don't want sovereignty?****
Mahanta da
Just a small query based on your above two statements! You have been saying
that plebiscite is a good idea and you claim (I hope I have the usage right
this time) that ULFA will also abide by the results. I am not sure whether the
plebiscite card being waved here-is it a genuine desire to know peoples mood or
a ploy to dub Assam as a disputed territory before the world (as Ram da has
indicated now and before)?
Let us assume that the Indians grant your wish of UN supervised poll. Now
tell us, will you as an Assamese allow another UN supervised poll in the north
bank for NDFBs Bodoland? In addition, some mini UN franchised polls in south
bank, Barak valley, Hill district to give them an opportunity to decide whether
they want to stay subservient to an independent nation ruled by Goswami, Gogoi
and Gafoor. Some more micro-polls within the Bodoland for fulfilling the
aspirations for Rajbonghis and within Assam for the Aadivasis?
Now you might say that I am racing ahead to muddle the situation. But is not
the situation precisely going to be like that given what we have seen in last
few decades:
An Asom Sahita Sabha for greater Assamese society becomes one amongst some 20
ethnic Sahitya Sabhas of Assam.
An all-powerful Assamese AASU leads the way for numerous student
organizations in the state.
Similarly, Bodo/Dimasa/Karbi/Naga secessionists join an independent Asom
seeker ULFA for the same piece of land.
Now tell me if it is UN sponsored poll for your ULFA then why not more polls
for the other mates? And where will it end?
Have you not visualized this situation? Or is this UN plebiscite call is not
for the actual results but is a strategy to use it as a stepping stone for some
more turmoil.
If this plebiscite business is a genuine effort on ULFAs part to gauge the
mood of people then why do you need to wait for an UN sponsored exercise? Why
don't you ask an Assamese organization to conduct the exercise peoples mood?
Or Why ULFA along with all the team mates (with whom aligns opportunistically
to carry out the cleansing operations) or its over ground supporters do not
conduct a scientific poll again assuming earlier poll with 5% yes never
happened? Why do you people end up questioning the credibility of Assamese
poll-sters? However, surprisingly you mention the organization in all humility
will accept the results of a poll supervised UN in coordination with Deshi
government. Is not it strange the organization and the supporters dont have
faith on the very people whose sovereignty aspirations they claim to espouse?
Just to remind you again Mahanta da, the question was:
Will you as an Assamese allow another UN supervised poll in the north bank
for NDFBs Bodoland, some mini UN franchised polls in south bank, Barak valley,
Hill district, some more micro-polls within the Bodoland, Assam, Dimaraji,
Nagalim, Kamatapur for the discontented lot within these sovereign territories?
