[Assam] Weighty Matters from Esom

Thanks Nayan for forwarding these. I haven't had
a chance to go thru all of them yet, but it sure
looks like a major "Hola Gosot Baagi Kuthar
Mora" enterprise by some of Oxom's brightest and
the bravest.
No wonder Shantikam Hazarika was awed.
I would like to ask my esteemed friends from this
'esom' list where the inquisition was in progress
, if I could that is ( I have no membership
privileges in that list, nor do I have any desire
to have any); as well as those members from
assamnet , including Utpal ( who seems to be a
member of both lists) who participated in it, the
following questions:
**** Does the fact that Ruby Bhuyan, the
ULFA dispatcher could not or did not field
the questions , mean that there are no
credible answers? What do THEY think? Would
they share their thoughts too?
**** Would they like to discuss those in
this net? I cannot speak for ULFA, but I can
address each and every question dumped on
the hapless Ruby Bhuyan by the
"Hola Gosot Baagi Kuthar Moraa Beer " of Esom online?
Incidentally, most, if not all the
questions of ( from my cursory review here)
Utpal's
were virtually the same as those raised
by Chittaranjan and others right here in Assamnet.
Utpal might have seen those too. If he
did, would he like to engage in it, even though
he did not when it was going on in
assamnet. At the risk of sounding conceited, I
must
say that it seems like some of these
inquisitors were looking for an easy target to
dump
on, but they avoid taking on those who
are better equipped to deal with them.
Finally, I was intrigued by the silence of the
many luminaries/intellectuals of Assam who I am
told are members of that forum in the exchanges (
assuming Nayan's forwarded note included all).
It would indicate that either they know better
than to indulge in such inanities or tacitly
approve of what was/is going on. Question is
what?

>I fully agree with Mrinal that for the first

>I want to ask ULFA a few questions - as an
>Assamese whose extended family includes my late
>grandfather Suresh Goswami (the director of 1953
>film Runumi) who along with my mother's uncle
>Jibeshwar Goswami for the first time had tried

>Prachin Kamrup Nritya Sangha, Lakshminath
>Bezboruah from whose family my maternal

>(my father's cousin) and Bidyut Chakraborty
>(Thakur's son-in-law), Mamoni Raisom Goswami
>(who is a relative through my bhai-bowari). I am
>giving all these examples to prove my 'purebred'
>credentials to ULFA before asking the questions
>- so that Ruby Bhuyan can reply to them without
>attributing any motives. Also, I am a journalist
>who have been working outside Assam for last 14
>years after starting my career in Assam, with a
>close tab of Assam's events, and have been done
>my best to promote particularly Assamese cinema
>outside Assam. I had been in touch with several
>former ULFA spokespersons as a journalist in my
>professional capacity. But here I am asking
>these questions as a common Assamese who want to
>see Assam excel in every field, without any fear
>that he or she might not return home alive in
>the evening.
>
>So, here are the questions. I hope there will be
>straightforward answers to my straightforward
>questions:
>
>1. In your last mail to this group, you
>mentioned "By the way--Assam's West is Korotoya+
>Jomuna, North is Tibet, East is Yunnan, South is
>Maan". Does this mean that in ULFA's map of
>Assam, Bhutan/Arunachal
>Pradesh/Nagaland/Manipur/Mizoram are all
>included as an integral part of Assam? Asking
>because between Assam & Tibet are Bhutan &
>Arunachal, between Assam & Yunnan is Arunachal,
>and between Assam and 'Maan' are
>Arunachal/Nagaland/Mainpur/Mizoram. And the
>southern borders do not mention Bangladesh.
>
>Can we have an image of the independent Assam that ULFA wants?
>
>2. How does ULFA's Assam plan to run its
>economy? The oil & natural gas are not going to
>last forever and tea sector is facing a lot of
>competition already. Please give us a detailed
>plan of action, not theory.
>
>3. What will be the place of Bodoland, Karbi
>Anglong autonomous council and many other such
>demands in ULFA's Assam? Has ULFA found out from
>all the communities demanding autonomy whether
>they want to be / would be part of ULFA's Assam?
>
>4. How do you justify the killings of the
>Dhemaji children, the scores of innocent people
>going to market places in various towns and
>cities, bus & train passengers all these years
>through bomb blasts, etc? Is this ULFA's way of
>waging war against the 'colonial' rulers of
>India? If you are fighting the official
>machinery in an armed struggle, you are supposed
>to fight the armed forces directly, isn't it?
>
>5. What will be the political system of ULFA's
>Assam - will it be a democracy? will discordant
>voices be allowed to be heard or will they be
>sougth to be subjugated like some of your
>replies on this forum sought to do with a lot of
>taunt to people who all want good of Assam (like
>calling Nayanjyoti Parasara a Bihari - even if
>he is one, what difference does it make, though
>for the record he is as pure an Assamese as any
>ULFA cadre could claim to be; or calling
>Santikam Hazarika 'the best management guru east
>of Suez' or some such description)?
>
>6. With reference to the killing of Bihari
>settlers in Assam, what is the definition of
>outsiders for ULFA, because many of those killed
>have been residents of Assam for over 50 years,
>with their children even going to Assamese
>medium schools. What is the cut off date,
>basically? Because it can be stretched to
>include the family of Jyotiprasad Agarwalla, the
>late Lalan Singh (whose forefathers had come to
>Assam from Bihar, and who became a president of
>AASU in the early 1970s), singers like Pulak
>Banerjee and Banikona Ghoshal, actress Seema
>Biswas, all the brahmins and many of the
>kayasthas in the states who were brought to
>Assam by the Ahom Kings, the saah bagan mazdoors
>who were brought in by the British from the
>present-day Telengana, Orissa, Jharkhand... and
>many more people.
>
>7. ULFA has banned Hindi film screenings in
>Assam as it is part of 'colonial propaganda'.
>Does its definition also include films made by
>Assamese directors in Hindi (Jahnu Barua's
>'Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara', Anshuman Barua's
>'Dooor' which is yet to be released), or even
>venturing into Hindi film world by people like
>Zubeen Garg, Saswati Phukan, Kalpana Patowari
>(who is, incidentally a superstar singer in
>Bhojpuri though she is a 'purebred' Assamese),
>Seema Biswas and others? Does the bad influence
>films also include those by people like Shyam
>Benegal, Govind Nihalani etc which talk of
>common man's concerns?
>
>8. Does ULFA's ban mean that it would seclude
>Assam from 'outside' world through such
>censorship, by preventing its people from
>accessing any form of art form as they want,
>especially in today's globalized world?
>
>9. Is there a possibility of ULFA extending the
>ban to literature, dance and other art forms
>from outside? What is ULFA's cultural policy?
>What has it done in all these years to inculcate
>in people love for indigenous art & culture
>(people still see Bollywood potboilers more than
>they go to see Jahnu Barua's Hkhagorloi Bohu
>Door, isn't it?)? I am particularly asking this
>in context of poetry of people like Mithinga
>Daimary, whose writings talk of an open world
>with freedom for all.
>
>10. Would ULFA ban people from Assam from
>participating in talent hunt shows (however
>trivial they may be) of TV channels from 'India'
>- for eg Saregamapa which Assam's Debojit Saha
>won last year?
>
>11. What are ULFA's views on mass organizations
>like Axom Sahitya Sabha, AASU, AJYCP which have
>all opposed its demand for independence and
>opposed the killing of innocent people? What is
>ULFA's opinion about public protests against the
>killings of innocent people in bomb blasts,
>allegedly carried out by ULFA? (Please don't
>refer to the atrocities carried out by Indian
>Army on innocent people and families of ULFA
>cadres - we all know about that are condemn that
>fully).
>
>12. What are your views on NSCN-IM's demand for
>Greater Nagalim which includes parts of Assam,
>Arunachal and Manipur?
>
>These are just a dozen. If I have more, I will send them in my next mail.

>And yes, I must congratulate Rubi Bhuyan for the

>mail was really outstanding - not like the angry
