@himantabiswa Delusional thinking. Guwahati is not even on the level of Patna or Indore. Far less. Most of the streets are dirty and poorly organized. No mass transit systems indicate that population density and economic activities are low. Then how can you claim that it is some gateway?
@himantabiswa How much FDI to Assam? How much Assam's share of the nation's GVA? How much is merchandise exports? IT exports? How much is Assam's import bill? How much is monthly GST collections? How much is the Census calculated literacy rate? How much is Assam's HDI? Can you answer?
@curiousboy30@Chellaney Deterrence is tested against friends as much as adversaries. If protecting citizens depends on whether the responsible country is an ally, then the principle being defended is the relationship, not the citizens.
@curiousboy30@Chellaney Accountability to voters does not require restraint. Democracies such as Israel, US, France, Britain have often adopted highly assertive responses when their citizens were harmed. Therefore, attributing India's muted reaction solely to democracy is a sign of weakness.
@himantabiswa Google recognises written Assamese as Bengali and spoken Assamese as Odia. Will you please address this? We need a clear distinction. Assamese is an ancient civilization and she doesn't deserve this 2nd class treatment.
@Anurag_Anu06@bangali2nup2@SujoyNMitra Saraighat was not merely a Mughal withdrawal. The Ahom forces defeated a major Mughal expedition under Raja Ram Singh I and forced its retreat.
Whether one calls it a tactical or strategic defeat, the Mughals clearly failed their objective and suffered a military setback. Sit
@cosmicd71166471@CTankie1917 Indians have sent a squadron of fighter jets to attack North East India. They are not far behind Chinese in this regard tho.
@dudewhateve@Nagaland_India Noob, You can make your point without threatening. NE is never allowed to be a major center. It is denied its due share and neglected on an institutional level. Shut up now.
@baxirahul Due to colonial priorities and legacy it had an outstanding start. Better than most indian cities therefore. A Chinese tier 3 city would give it a run for its money.
