It may provide enough excitement for some to jump up and down to know that Paresh Baruah's own brother works in Dinjan Air Base or MES or something. Please don't threaten to sue me (I am still a poor student), or accuse me of spreading misinformation as I heard this when I was growing up in Tinsukia. Authenticity still needs to be confirmed.

 Another interesting spin. I have not heard any one's family being harassed by ULFA and it is indeed very difficult for a military person to hide his identity. The thing is this type of news can be 'manufactured' by just sitting in one's desk and put on one's imagining caps. 
 
 
 *** Here I agree wholeheartedly. This whole picture of Assam being under the ULFA's dictats day-in-and-day-out, is one that has been manufactured by lazy and/or malicious Indians ( often assisted by equally malicious Oxomyas) with little incentive to do serious journalistic reporting.

 quite a revelation. On the other hand, national media earlier reported that due to fear of ULFA those Assamese serving in armed forces in Kashmir etc tell neighbors etc that they work in banks as officers/clerks - so that their family may not be harrassed.   Umesh

 Air Marshal spills beans on 'hypocrisy' OUR CORRESPONDENT   Barbora speaks at the media conference in Shillong. Picture by Eastern Projections Shillong, April 2: The indifference of successive governments and disillusionment with the "hypocritical" conduct of seniors have forced a large number of officers from the Northeast to quit the services. That was Air Marshal P.K. Barbora's first observation after he assumed charge as air officer commanding-in-chief of the Eastern Air Command. Addressing a news conference in Shillong, Barbora said several efficient young officers of the Northeast were leaving the services because they were "highly sentimental" and could not cope with the "hypocritical" attitude of their seniors. "The indifferent attitude of the earlier governments towards the Northeast, coupled with a feeling of alienation, have led the defence forces to a situation where it has a negligible number of personnel from the Northeast. Earlier governments tried to use
 the same yardstick for all problems in the region and that led to chaos," he said, adding that the situation was changing gradually.
