I am an ardent Assamaes and proud to be one!! i would as an assamese wouldn't consider Anup Chetia as true assamese - every assamese is an indian and those who considers otherwise are alien to our motherland. bangladeshis in assam have become the literal parasites - eating away our land, economy and our culture. and ironically ulfa leaders have chosen this country as their safe abode!! let's face it - let seal off the main highway and let see what happens to the states in the north eastern part of India - even for one day. immediate reaction would be sky reaching prices of all essential commodities. another fact point - we are not self sufficeint. third fact point - we are not stable economically, which answers for all the merituous students leaving assam every year. have the problems solved and then we may consider the ""the so called assamese to be the true sons of the soil"".
