Mukul-da,You missed the whole point. It is NOT what IndiaIS but what India is perceived to be. I don't see any connection at all with your ULFA rebellion etc. Cows and caste and curry will continue to be the 3 Cs of India in Western psyche -- whatever the outcome of ULFa talks may be.
Dear Mahesh-da:
Thank you for sending the information. It is a great way to show care and affection to one's loved ones and doing something for the people back home. As usual, they have set a good example for others to follow.We would like to follow it by doing something similar in the near

Umesh,
Thats the wrong question for C'da. Look what he wrote:
Question is who will take charge of such reforms, NOW? The answer is that
there are plenty of people, right in Assam--and outside too, to take it on. Ready, willing and able.
But they cannot do that under prevailing Indian rule.
I fail to understand why Aligarh Mulsim Univ is NOT given minority status and allowed to admit 50% muslim students -whereas Supreme Court in 1992 judgement allowed St. Stephens College (funded by UK's Anglican Church ) to do the same -ie admit 50% Christians only.. Is it becos our West-is-best
Ram-da,You answered a part of the answer. GOI , GOA also figure in it. They cannot be absolved of the blam --but are they also involved in killing local entrepreneurs and social workers.UmeshRam-da wrote:"Sometimes I think this continuing insurgency is a big money-churner for many

1) Many Assamese itself DO NOT support independence or be outside of India. They think they are Indians.
2) ULFA or others have been trying for this for 25 + years

Postponing peace as a possible strategy is seen to be mostly used by the Government in dealing with separatist rebel outfits rather than with groups seeking a solution within the ambit of the Constitution.
Separatist groups too doesn't seem to dislike this strategy. That perhaps explains as to

If I may jump in, both Utpal and you have made some interesting observations
