[Assam] on plebisite

[ulfa_ 1979April7]

Hon'able netter,

We felt it necessary to add our comment to the above discussion thread between Ram Sarangapani and Chandan Mahanta. Yes indeed, the ULFA is still totally committed, as before, to honour the verdict of a plebiscite on the restoration of the Sovereignty of Asom held under the auspices of the United Nations.  The ULFA certainly made this declaration before anybody else.  Bringing this up in this discussion forum by yourselves is very commendable. But we would like to make it clear here that we do not want any migrant from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Myanmar etcetera  since 1947 to take part in this plebiscite  in defining the future direction of Asom. 
Ram Sarangapani, you are a regular contributor in the AssamNet forum.  Your explicit expression of support to stand by Assam (Asom)and her people reflects your wisdom. 
There are many who may not support  the ULFA, but, the most important thing is for all is to standby the people of Asom.  We would like to ask you not to support the views and actions of the selfish ones who are just taking advantage of the situation. Instead, be with the majority and work for real peace to return to Asom.

  **** That is a pathetic spin Ram.
   
  IF you are for an end to the conflict, and ULFA agrees to abide by the verdict of the people, why do you invent excuses like that to avoid the plebiscite, unless you really do not believe what you profess, that the people don't want sovereignty?

  C'da,
   
  You know me well enough to know that I don't carry water for anybody - GOI included.
  And does it really matter where I stand?
   
   
  Well, if you must, I don't like a plebicite. I seriously think its a red-herring for anyone interested in the well-being of Assam (both the pro/against sovereignty people).
   
  I think the results of a plebicite will not be helpful to anyone. It will lead to a much bigger, and unmanageable mess from which Assam will never get out of.Each side will bicker and moan about fraud, etc and a toothless UN can't do a lick.
   
  >Dilli has a billion people behind it.  The people of Assam need yOU far more than Dilli does.
   
  Thanks, C'da. But, you misunderstand, I am on Assam's side as opposed to being on Dilli's side.
  Now, what I am not sure of is being on ULFa's side is synonymous with seeking Assam's interests? :)
  And, C'da, Assam needs you more than they will ever need me.

  That should pretty much place those who are for Assam's continued servitude in a huge majority and thus pave the way for a plebiscite to put an end to the speculations, wouldn't it?
  
 
  Why even bother about Assam Public Works' house to house interrogation poll?

  Jeeez.. only 5% support sovereignty and this movement? Thats bad even from a poll that one doesn't trust.
   
  It is encouraging to note that that some 43% sent in their votes thru surface mail.
   
  Any reasons why the PCG did not publish the results?  Also, does this result in any way match up with those conducted by the Assam Public Works (or Service) group?
