Tarun Gogoi demeans dissidents with cracking jokes
Addressing a party press conference on Saturday, Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, slammed the leaders of the dissident Faction and toyed with their ambitions and misadventure dreams wanting to see Gogoi falling from the top. However, a very positive body language of the Chief Minister at ease spelled the name of health minister, Himanta Bishwa Sharma, said, that though once he was a favorite minister once, now no longer the health Minister rules his heart. The Chief Minister made it clear that he is all set to be the chief minister even for the next term if his health be by his side.
Though expressing all his anguish with cracking jokes, Gogoi said that personally he has no enemy. “Prafulla Kumar Mahanta is not my personal enemy, yes we have ideological differences, ask Bijoya Chakrovorty, we are no enemies” said the Chief Minister who was seen in a very light mood today at the press conference. A confident Gogoi talked about the developmental works that was done in Guwahati city, and sees no reason why the people will not vote the congress in the forth coming Council election. He dismissed all the TV channel reports that have shown the development works in very poor light. “Let the TV do the negative publicity and the people will keep voting the congress” said the Chief Minister. He also spoke about the Mangaldoi Civil Incident, and advocated for filing a criminal case against the culprits. Though reports says that four people were infected after blood transfusion in the hospital, the Chief minister is still waiting for detail reports. On the issue of Narendra Modi, Traun Gogoi said that the Congress is not at all afraid of Narendra Modi, instead the BJP is itself afraid of Narendra Modi.

Taking a stroll around the village of Sijubari No.1, in Kamrup district of Boko, would remind few lines of Poet Robert Frost,
"Whose woods these are I think I know. His house is in the village, though; He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow."
The mesmerizing forest cover of Sijubari village however misses the snow only, but the woods are lovely, deep and dark. At the very first sight of the forest one would naturally wonder as how these beautiful woods have not been affected by destruction that has deteriorated the forest scenario in the entire state of Assam.
This normal forest cover engulfing the sijubari village is said to be more than 25 hectors of...
Talibans and their Law have earned a bad name through out the world of the civil society, and there is no denying their brutal attitude is as horrible as anyone can imagine. Today the synonym of Taliban is something that is extreme and inhumane and unexpectable to the civil society. So what about a section of Assamese women that is acting TALIBANS in the civilized street and bringing shame to the Assamese community as a whole.
Here the reference is being made to the recent incidents of women beating up girls and women in public place and in front of camera without even paying the least respect for the women community. The incidents are of Golaghat and Tezpur some time back. All...
As the gap for holding political dialogue between the ULFA leaders and Government seems to be getting closer with the release of the jailed leaders, once again expectations are growing and people in general have started weaving dreams in the twilight. Whenever the question of ULFA is being raised a million dollar question regarding ULFA, s relevance to Assam and the Assamese society in the present context has always been raised. There are many who wants to say ULFA is no more relevant to the Greater Assamese society. Yes, this might be true only in case of Greater Assamese society but not for the “Assamese society”. For me the greater Assamese society consists of those people...
Encountering a much unexpected thing might turn our head around any moment and make us ponder over a matter at the cost loosing a good sleep and even temporarily loosing appetite. It happened to me when I had heard from some one that Akhil Gogoi, the general secretary of Krishak Mukti Sangram Samity, owns a pajero. I know its not true yet the whole episode which included the reference of Akhil Gogoi having a pajero has more to do with the emotionally blind people of Assam.
It took me three long hours of a risk taking journey in a TATA “Winger”, from Goalpara to Mirza on my way to Guwahati after a news coverage to learn about the PAJERO episode. I boarded a Tata Winger...

The demand for Autonomous Council is not new in the politics of Assam, but how ever what would one comment on the demand for Autonomous Muslim council by Rashul Haque , who is now in the “Congress Gharana”, after being expelled from AUDF for same demand he had raised. One can understand the political demand for a separate Bodoland demanded by the leaders of the BPF and supported by other leaders of the particular community. The demand for separate Bodoland has invited some fierce political reaction from the opposition specially because there are three cabinet ministers in the government.
Though morally one can no longer support any division of the state of Assam yet there...
