[Assam] An open letter to the Prime Minister

I have only one question here Uttam:
Just because Bikash Das or anybody else throws some innuendo or charge against somebody else, does it mean that the target of such charges, innuendos,
must explain them ?
If netter A demands to from netter B when he stopped beating his wife, is netter B REQUIRED to answer the question to clear his name? Is there even a semblance of justice in such accusations or innuendos.
And when Netter B refutes such an accusation, are you or I equipped to sit in judgement of that ? Would you even wish to? To be specific, what do you know of Bikash Das or what do I know, to give his charges or innuendos any credence?
Think about it.
c-da

Since it came as a blank, I was worried,as you have started using not very appropriate language (though your intention may not have been that) against a nation and being unkind to the netters here (except Chandan Da) for not giving due importance that you thought you had deserved. On the top of it, Dr. Bikash Das, who has been around with us for quite some time now, seemed to have reservations about your erstwhile conduct.
> I was worried because I did not want to get involved in an unwarranted conversation. Though you have yet to reply to Dr. Das's portrayal of your past conduct ( which would be material to me because I would not get into a situation where Sri Amar Jyoti Borah would sermonize me only because I protested your vituperative attack on a community as a whole).
> Since Sri Rajbongshi is out on tour, we should not disturb him for a while. If I feel like I have to, I shall try to know about your journalistic exploits and social actions from the references you have given, as some other senior people could not place you.
> In the meanwhile, we may engage in discussions about events with dignity.

I stepped into Print media through AJI & NATOON SOMOY(That time Editor was Ajit Kr Bhuyan) in 2003 August, with a serial report named "ULFA-r Swadhin Axom-r Swopno DuSwopno". In 2005, I moved to NATOON DIN, for 3 special investigation reports i.e. (a) The Exposure of Backdated Education Scandal of Nalbari District, (b) Unseen stories of Secret Killing age of Mahanta's rulling & (c) Position of Missing ULFA leaders in Bhutan war. Then I was to move to AJI again in late 2005, but the media was to be sold to Anil Majumdar. Almost all staff of Aji moved to another media, after the ownership changed to Anil Majumdar in 2006 July. I didn't go anywhere, and Ajit Bhuyan too. Ajit Bhuyan joined Pratidin in 2008 March after a break of 2 years. And I joined Adinor Sambad (Edit by Adip Kr Phukan) as Spl Reporter. As well as I am the lone webmaster of the ePaper of Adinor Sambad i.e. www.adinorsambad.com

So you can understand, why nobody knows me as Journalist. I do not hjave any interest on running behind of any Political leader(whether rulling or opposition) nor any other type. I choose my own bit, for my adventure. This is the truth. You can understand now, who knows me as Journalist and who doesn't know.

For the sake of transparency, and since you have made the claim through the net involving so many people, could you please send me the e-mail id, so that what I would ask him would be available to you as well as the assamnet. In case you do not have it, or not in a position to collect it from him, then let me try to get it myself. But if you can give, it will save me the bother, as I do not belong to your profession which surely has an advantage here. By the way, you report for particular house or are you freelance?

Since you are a person of action, as you are saying it a number of times, go and help Akhil Gogoi, he's doing much better things not being a self-proclaimed journalist, not being a member of a mailing list...... and in fact mailing lists, blogs are writing about him and his organistaion KMSS.

I did several report against the then President Kanaksen Deka(though I am too a Deka :P). But my intention was to prevent this domination. Dr Paramananda Rajbangshi helped me in my report. In result Dr Rajbangshi was expelled for lifetime from Xahitya Xobha, by President Kanaksen Deka. All the reports are reserved as a BOOKLET in Xahitya Xobha's head office i.e. Jorhat. It was Dr Rajbangshi & my try, which brought Rong Bong Terang to the President of Xahitya Xobha. Ask Dr Rajbangshi, if you have doubt on my say.
