Thanks for sharing that Priyankoo.
I agree with MRG's comments and do support her
efforts towards finding a political solution to
the conflict in Assam. If that is achievable
thru an UN supervised plebiscite, MRG's support
for that is indeed invaluable. I admire her
independent thinking abilities and the courage to
express them.
