Kanchan Gupta has made a very fitting statement backed by an indepth analysis of the current state of affairs in the country as far as post-independence "secularism" and demographical balances are concerned.
I fully concur and agree with him on the state of affairs in Assam, especially in the Cachar and Hailakandi districts.
Undisputedly, it remains the most unpalatable truth that it has been the Congress in Assam and the CPI(M) in West Bengal, which have forever remained truly unsecular while trying to woo the Muslim immigrants from Bangladesh.
Cachar and Hailakandi districts now sport dangerously high levels of imbalance courtesy the huge, uncontrolled, politically motivated and supported, influx of illiterate Muslim population from our eastern neighbours, most notably, Bangladesh.
Try as they might, the local politicans, save and except a handful, shall continue turning a blind eye and plead ignorance lest they forfeit their power and leave a poor future for their own.
Had such immigration injected educated manpower, our country would have been richer in its culture and would have lept forward to being a first world nation instead of being a third-rate one.
