Why do we discuss so much? Some case studies: 1) You are from any rural part of assam. Your father is / was a teacher / farmer / any other govt job holder.One day you decided to move out of your native and that's logical. So one day your father had to sell the farming land(hardly any ruralite assamese did't have an acre of farming land 10 years back) . That's also reasonable. Now searching for the client who would give him the best return. This is obvous that only a farmer would go for some cultivable land.This way most part of cultivable land in lower and central assam are grabbed by Bangladeshis.
Don't believe: Don't go to hojai, moirabari, dhing. Go to your native(village). Ask your relative where are those lands which you had 30 years back. 2) Why bangladeshis can't make it to tribal areas? I am not talking about hill states. Just wanted to compare Maibong and Dhing.

I doubt if "everybody" in Bangladesh is jumping across the border to get into the NE, although quite a few in the region would have us believe that this is the only thing in which they are interested. That there is migration is not the issue: the question is how manmy people are coming and where are they going after entering the NE: many head to other parts of India and even the Indo-Pakistan border to enter Pakistan and eventually try and get into a system that would take them to the Middle East. the birth rate in Nagaland is high not because of Bangladeshi migration but because of consistently high growth rates over several decades. Assam is the first state that most Bangladeshis would enter: in which case why has our growth rate dropped and is at par with much of the rest of India? Yahoo!
