National Seminar at Gauhati University,September,1983
Recommendation excerpt on NE region,p.18:
"...[T]he political and administrative units[sic.states] in the region at present should be accorded 'autonomy' which,under any circumstances,should not be less than that of the special constitutional status,accorded to Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370 of the Constitution.It is true that the region should have enjoyed the same status as Jammu and Kashmir simultaneously,since the historical reasons are incidentally similar and also that the denial of such a status has unnecessarily provoked the people of the region to adopt different methods of protest,not excluding extreme steps to express popular grievances."

"Speaking at the occasion[ sic. anniversary of several lakh-people rally in 1997],Prof.Sanajaoba[chief guest] observed that in accordance to the International Court of Justice[sic. verdict on uti possidetis rule in general],India government cannot compromise with the territorial integrity of Manipur, and in case Delhi uses force to dismember any part of Manipur,then it should be held responsible for the consequences."

MANIPUR REVOLUTION,1950

ASSAM TRIBUNE
Guwahati,29 September,2008
'Manipur's Aborted Revolution,1950'-
Naorem Sanajaoba,p. 6
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
excerpts-"The CPI like the BCP[both white and red flags] considered Indian independence as sham, and it had to take up armed struggle largely, for the indepedence of India[ sic. after Indian independence in 1947"
- " The red guards[ sic. Manipuri revolutionaries of 1950] had struck upon the Manipur police, Manipur Rifles and the 4th Assam Rifles].
- " Political assasinations happened decades after.Subsequently thereafter, the next phase of guerrilla war [ sic.in Manipur after Indian annexation] of the PLA[eastern division] and PREPAK happened in the valley in 1978-79."
"The red guards revolution in 1950-51 left a profound,indelible impact on the informed Manipuri world-view and onward progression of a composite,egalitarian history of the ancient Asian state[sic.Manipur].The MCP [ sic.Manipur Communist Party] revolution remains a pathfinder in a re-defined ,better articulated political landscape."

----- quote of the day---------------------------------------------------------

"Revolution is not a dinner party, nor an essay,nor a painting,

nor a piece of embroidery ; it cannot be advanced softly,

gradually, carefully, considerately, respectfully, politely,

plainly and modestly."

VIEWPOINT

*** 2009 - nod to the idea-'meak and wretched

would inherit the earth"




*** Future lies with the small men;history is made by small men.The colored ,the brown and the golden are entitled to the next century,if not the millennium;they have the massive unexploited human and natural resources,- a complete virgin soil, which for the time being are ruthlessly tapped and exploited by the resourceless minority TRESSPASSERS.

Dogmas do not last any more than they have to.
However, history had never favoured the uncommitted ,
the indecisive,incapable of making a dream on their own
and living with the dream and vision.Crossroad is a road
that leads one nowhere.

***America is not a mistake;but it commits mistakes to others in search of WMD ,oil or, democracy.When it starts committing mistakes to itself in turn, in search of WMD ,oil etc,Plato would have to re-write lost Atlantis-II where America had once occupied a space 2000 years before 5000 AD,if not earlier.Rome did not ruin at the hands of Rome-conquering Chinese Khans,but at its own hands.
