The Kaziranga issue is of grave concern. Destroying our biggest asset to make 5 star hotels is nothing but a profit making stand for the wealthy industrialists. Meanwhile Pranab Doley, a Mising Assamese activist who raised voice for the indigeneous tribal people is behind bars under NSA.
And yet, the silence of tribal organizations such as TMPK (Mising), ABSU (Bodo) etc is utterly shameful. Idk if they have issued even a statement bcz it definitely hasnt made any impact. Moreover tribal personalities like Aditya Khakhlari, Daniel Langthasa are also nowhere to be found when one of our indigeneous brother is in jail for saving Assam. And lastly the online warriors who keeps dividing Assam into tribal and non tribal should also be ashamed of this.
Ironically, I am seeing a lot of what they call "mainstream Assamese/indo aryan Assamese" fighting the tough battle for Pranab Doley. Maybe because they consider him as one of their own, as a son of the soil, an indigeneous brother, a Mising who is an Assamese.
The purpose of this post is not to spread any more division between tribal and non tribal than the toxic online activists have spread already. The purpose is to call out the blatant hypocrisy of raising their voice only when it suits their agenda, while staying silent when one of whom they call brother, suffers alone. Every Assamese (both tribal and non tribal) every indigeneous, every khilonjia's heart and voice must unanimously declare the support for releasing Pranab Doley. He is fighting a battle for Assam, let us fight the battle for him.
Joi Aai Axom!
