Dangorias- can we please discuss other critical issues and ideas like introduction of inneline permits in Assam? Aren't we all Assamese who are invaded by Bangladeshis?

We are talking about the local dialect which is the Kamrupi language. Is it going to die out? At least in Guwahati, the younger generation is trying not to speak because of the Dhekeri stigma. Probably, this feeling will spread to the lower Assam districts as well. How then we preserve this dialect? Maybe someone should write a book in that dialect. Or someone should start publishing a newspaper? Someone who wants to preserve his/her Kamrupi identity should do it. Remember, languages thrive on constant output of literature. As for me, I am happy with my Assamese identity. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4717 ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
