[Assam] [asom] River Basin Friends denounces the MoUs signed between Arunachal Pradesh Government and Central Power Sector Undertakings

Wed Sep 27 09:04:34 EDT 2006

I have a few questions for Sarma da:

As the Assam Govt. Adivisor on the Riverliking boon-doggle, should 
you NOT have had these info. already?

And if you did not, did you try to get them, but were denied access 
or were told they were not available?

Ravindranath, fortunately, is one of the few people looking after 
Assam's interests on these issues,even though his expertise is not in 
this field; whereas it ought to have been the Assam Govt., with 
assistance from experts such as yourself.

Why has that not happened you think?
