If after 66 years of Independence, center is deeply thinking to address the woes of the people of north-east, it seems preposterous that ruling in nearly all the North-East states after Independence, the region still needs a plan to be chalked out to lessen and address their neglect and misery?
What happened to Nido, or to two women, or to many like them points its finger on the Congress. The region was not given importance right from the beginning. Britishers created the North-East Frontier not for development but for business. After all, they were here to do business only.
That the region was cynosure of Chinese eyes from 1826 is well documented. The McMohan Line, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Assam still remain disputed areas in Chinese eyes, which is a more worrisome affair for India. And even after fifty one years of the Sino-Indian War, the border conflict remains unresolved then who is to be blamed for? They all not only point a finger on the will of the Indian government to solve the issue, but on the root-cause of the plight of the people from north-east also. Sadly, the root-cause is the Congress party.
It is always better late than never. Mr Rahul Gandhi may be right in asking the home ministry to setup a committee to address the concerns of north-easterners, but he should also cogitate on the things, which have resulted in an uneven development of India after independence. And Independent India has had more committee's than anything else. Let's hope that he gets ample time on cogitation after the general elections. And the nascent government in Delhi should bring the culprits to book--who are said to be AAP's cadre--and stop playing the vote politics.
