Anjuman, You have raised a few very good point. Here are my response. 1) You get money. -> Invest it wisely. -> Produce good results. -> More money will come. However if you waste it, the cycle breaks down and it creates issues with fund. We, the Assamese people, just know how to complain. It would be wise to make solid plans to spend money for job growth. Then more money will come to the state. This requires putting capable people who can manage and govern the state. This needs political awakening among the residents of the state so that capable people are elected. It is very important that as a voter you have a good choice. There has been a problem in Assam as smart people are not going into politics. About 25 of my classmates from the undergraduate class in India went into IAS. I am in touch with them and we all share the same sentiment. 2) I will not say that the cops in Bihar are better than those in Assam. May be they are equally corrupt and incapable. Yes, we need to upgrade our Police forces. Yes, we need to change the basic security philosophy and intelligence. However the main issue may be a different one. There is a vested interest from some of the neighboring countries to keep north-east a disturbed region. They are exploiting some of the folks over these states, and encouraging them to get involved in terrorism and to bear arms. For an unemployed youth, this is becoming an attractive option from economic point of view. Regards, Dhiraj

Deep rooted discrimination against North Eastern States and neglect by the Central Government is the biggest challenge for us. According to the policy adopted in 1998, each central department and ministry is bound to spend 10 % of their GBS for north east states. this amount is to be spent for infrastructure development . This is hardly followed. For seven North east states, even 10 percent is not spent, how can we expect development and disengaging youths from 'terrorism'? See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/files/misc/NE-Budget.xls Green columns reflects the percentage allotted for North East states. ( Data not to be published without permission). Poverty or joblessness is not the cause behind 'terrorism'. Bihar is the poorest state in India. biharis are not turning terrorists everyday. Security loopholes needs to be tightened. and above all, we should stop blaming the entire community for the criminal activities of few individuals. this will not lead us to any prosperity.

The State has already 730 ITI's offering industrial training to youth. Out of total sanctioned 143 ITI's, 100 will come up in the private sector, while the remaining is being set up by the government. In all these ITI's, motor-driving will be included as important curriculum to meet the increasing demand for drivers these days. In view of this, district Collectors have been asked to acquire at least 15 acres for each new ITI to provide sufficient space for driving. I think it would be very useful to open up new ITI's or modernizing existing ones in Assam. This will add a lot of value to the local economy by producing good technicians. They are the force behind the manufacturing sector. I can personally help on planning, establishing and modernizing these institutions if Assam government is interested.
