You have sought to indicate the possible ways out in the context of the related realities. While the objective conditions were born out of the sub-continental politics involving partition, economic compulsions, wars etc., you have given me more reasons to believe that subjective push comes from Assam specific policies/ politics of the Indian ruling polity that is insensitive, discriminatory and inimical to the local fears and aspirations, and also its innate weaknesses, arising out of acting at cross-purposes and the inherent myopia in trying to tide out the immediate threat to its own survival. Thank you for a fulfilling experience.

Recently all of you had important things to say on Assam’s apparently un-resolvable “Bangladeshi” problem. As I read your comments, I realized that an academic article I wrote last year on what I call the ambiguities of citizenship in Assam would have been of interest to you. I am sending you a copy as an attachment. Do read it when you get a chance. I would welcome feedback. I apologize for the somewhat academic prose. Good wishes, Sanjib Baruah _______________________________________________ assam mailing list [email protected] http://assamnet.org/mailman/listinfo/assam_assamnet.org _______________________________________________ assam mailing list [email protected] http://assamnet.org/mailman/listinfo/assam_assamnet.org
