Bangladeshi in Voter List for Rs. 50

Bangladeshi people gets their name listed on the voter list of India, for just Rs. 50. This is not the words of Assamese people, but a Bangladeshi itself! Read on..

Majibur Ali (40) came to Jorhat and started working in the field of a Congress worker. Later he got his name listed on the voter list by paying a bribe of Rs. 50, during the 1995 survey. He also helped many Bangladeshi people to settle down in Kolbari of Jorhat. He is not alone to have name on the voter list. Bosiron Ali (67), Usub Ali (60), Rabia Ali (55), Idris Ali (32), Saina Begum (24) etc. from Dergaon, are some of those thousands of Bangladeshi that lives in Assam and has their name on the voter list.

Whose fault is this? Assamese people are also responsible for this influx of Bangladeshi. Why they uses Bangladeshi people for work? Why they gives shelter to Bangladeshi Miya? Why they sells their motherland for Rs. 50? We think that, these bribe takers must be hanged! Then only some people will improve.

Bangladeshi is Indian?

The Governments of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland has expelled over 3,300 people from their state. The reason? They are citizens of Bangladesh and living illegally in India. We must thank these Governments for their good action. But, wait! See, what our Assam Government is telling!

Last week Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi told at a press conference that all these people are Indian. We wonder how they verified the nationality of these people within such a short period of time. Everyone in North East India, knows that these are Bangladeshi people. Only Assam Government guards them as Indian. The motive behind this is politics. Already, Assamese News Media is showing proofs about the nationality of these people. They are nothing but Bangladeshi, shameless Bangladeshi.

Why? Why Assamese people don't understand the problem that is growing day by day? If this continues, soon this beautiful land will turn into a land of 'Miya'. Wake up Assam?

Update: Today, the Governments of
Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland challenged Assam Government to prove these Bangladeshi as Indian. Well done Arunachal and Nagaland. When Assam will wake up?

Wake up Assamese People!


Wake up Assamese People!

AAMSU has threatened that they will throw away Assamese people from the Borpeta, Dhubir and Goalpara districts of Assam. Mind it, AASU is an organization of religious minority in Assam. How they dared to say like that to Assamese people, the local people of Assam? Everyone knows that Assam is a favourite place for the Bangladeshis (people from bangladesh). They are in such a large number that, in near future they will cover the whole Assam. This threat by AAMSU is just a sign of that!

Wake up Assamese people? Wake up all local communities and tribes of Assam (Ahom, Mishing, Rabha, Bodo, Karbi, Chutia, etc.. all local communities). This is your land, that your anchestors left. Now, keep it in your hand. Otherwise in near future, Bangladeshis will run your state and you people will be their servants.

Government is not going to take any action. Other organizations will just shout. They real action must be taken by people - Assamese Poeple ( all local people are Assamese).

How can you do it?
  • Don't allow Bangladeshi people to work in your house/office/field.
  • Don't allow Bangladeshi people to stay in your villages/town.
  • Don't encourage Bangladeshi baggers.
  • Don't sell or offer food items to Bangladeshi.

  • Without food, shelter and money; how long Bangladeshi will stay in Assam?
  • Act Now, before it's too late!

AASU on Faulty Medical Entrance Rules



The All Assam Students Union (AASU) said that the new rules in connection to medical entrance made effective from this year has deprived the rural students from joining the medical line.

In a release to the press, the AASU said that the Health Minister’s claim that the raising of the cut-off marks for the medical entrance had established the dominance of students from villages was simply ridiculous.

“The AASU was against raising of the cut-off mark and we were of the opinion that the step would prove detrimental to the students from the rural areas. The results of the medical entrance has proved our fears right,” said the functionaries.

Heavy Rain and Life in Guwahati


As monsoon season arrives, rain creates lots of problem in Assam. In many places flood situation is very severe. Thanks to the weather God! This time Assam will get lots of water as usual. But the condition was not usual last year, when very little rain created lots of problem. So, what people will do? To love rain or not to love?

In Guwahati city, the municipality wakes up when the monsoon rain arrives! They starts to work on the drains and roads. Is it really appreciable? Today a heavy downpour for about 3 hours stopped the life of city. Water came down from the hills and flooded the city roads. The situation became worse in places where the works on drain construction was going on. (thanks to the intelligent decision of the municipality and GMDA!) Traffic stopped in many places and people started walking towards their home, in rain and flood water. Because they must reach their home after a long day work.

This observation is published here just to ask one question to the Government! Why they don't work on time to prevent such situations? Money is not a problem, we think. Because one can see how much money is being spent to build drains in these 2 weeks! No doubt! Guwahati is developing. Assam also. But is it a properly planned development process?

Five-star hotel in Assam

Assam is all set to get the first five-star hotel, which will hopefully help the region clinch some meaty business deals. A joint venture agreement was signed today between the Dharampal Styapal (DS) Group and the Guwahati Municipal Development Authority (GMDA) at the residence of Assam chief minister Tarun Gogoi.

The agreement was signed by the director of DS group, P.K. Gupta and A.K. Bhutani, secretary of GDD. According to the memorandum of agreement, the DS group will invest Rs. 100 crore and develop the hotel on a 27 bigha plot at Gotanagar along the national Highway 37. The construction will begin within a month and is expected to be completed within 24 months.

We hope that, this step will lead to prosperity of Assam by attracting investors. In this occaision we should recall what Infosys co-founder N.R. Narayana Murthy said last year-"A city is fit for big business if it has a good five star hotel"

Assam to Produce Electricity from Husk!
Bamboo dust, rice husk and the sun will soon make the bulb glow in Puthimari gaon Panchayat in Assam's Darrang district.

There is no binding on the consumption of 'Tamol Pan'. Men and women of any age can consume it. In every marriage ceremony 'Tamol Pan Bota' (a legged tray of bell metal) is must and so important is their status that, whenever any matrimonial talks are to begin, it is mandatory to offer a 'Bota' full of Tamol Pan.

Welcome Back Assam!


Hey! what are you doing, you Assamese people? I am requesting you all to give a break! Give some time for blogging, instead of chatting and porn! Yesterday night I browsed through internet, in search of some good Assamese Blogs. But, nothing! I got nothing, but that 2 hour time spoiled some of my bandwidth.Well, it may be my fault or the fault of search engines; I am requesting you all "Please write someting good about Assam and let me know about it". You can also send me the URL links, that you think valuable.

I have noticed that most of the Assmese youths, uses internet for chatting and porn. This is not just bluff, but my own experience in various cyber cafes over a period of 6 years. Wait, wait I am not telling you to change your personal tastes and preferances! But, looking at the present scenario of Assam, I would like to request you to give some time for Assam. See, if 1000 users will open 1000 Blogs, then they posts atleast 1 post every month, then Assam will get 12000 posts on Assam in a year. This will help Google and other Search engines to index more information on Assam.

So, try to open a Blog, and start writing. It may be your personal Blog, but you can give some Assamese touch to it! In my later postings I will tell you about the benefits of writing a Blog.

Till then happy Blogging!
