Assam heading for a Bangladeshi Majority

[Sourabh Bora]

Dear Frieds 

    Assam is  a state of India which has only 14 seats in the parliament and  we most of the times forget that it is a part of India. I wish to draw your attention to a threat looming large on Assam.

 

Assam joined  India in the year 1826. During independence Assam almost went to Pakistan inspite of a small muslim population, thanks to the step motherly attitude of leaders like Nehru.  The attitude never ceased. The influx of poverty striken Bangladeshis to the green and then prosperous Assam was ignored and encouraged for vote. 

 

And today my motherland is in a pathetic state. We may ignore Assam's problem with our usual  "none our business" attitute. But, this is soon going to turn into a Disaster for India also. Assam is no longer the "green", "prosperous place" that attracted the Bangladeshis. The per capita income has gone down from one of the highest in India to one of the lowest (what else can you expect when Millions of hungry stomachs crowd a small place?). Now they have started heading for mainland India. Their presence in Delhi and Bombay is well known. Now even in Bangalore I have met construction worker who speak the Bangladeshi language. Some even speak Assamese, showing that Assam is becoming the transit point.

 

( Please note that Bangladesh being a muslim nation, the growth of Bangladeshi can be  directly related to the growth of muslims. The statistics below has nothing to do with the propaganda of the Hindutva camp , its pure fact)

 

In 1911, the Muslim population in the then Barpeta  district, was only 1 per cent of its total population. In 2001, it was found from the census report that the Muslim population had increased to 59.36 per cent, thereby making the Hindus (not Asomiyas alone) a minority community. According to the same census report, the Muslims have become the majority in five districts: Dhubri from 70.46 per cent in 1991 to 74.3 per cent; Goalpara from 50.18 per cent in 1991 to 53.7 per cent; Karimganj from 49.17 per cent in 1991 to 52.3 per cent; Hailakandi from 55.42 per cent in 1991 to 57.6 per cent; and Barpeta from 56.07 per cent in 1991 to 59.36 per cent. By 2005,Muslims also became the majoirty community in another five districts: Darrang, Sonitpur, Nagaon, Marigaon and Cachar. If the Muslims (minorities) had become the majority
 population in these districts through the normal growth rate of the Asomiya Musalmans,we have nothing to grouse at all, as they too are an integral part of the Asomiya society; but this situation has developed due to abnormal growth rate of the illegally immigrant Bangladeshi population through a much higher birth rate compared to the Hindus as well as Asomiya Musalmans and unabated illegal influx.

 

Lets see how the population of Asom has been growing from 1971 to 2001 — on religious basis:

 Religious groups 1971 1991 2001 2005 (Estimated)

Hindu 72.51% 67.13% 64.9% 62.5%
Muslim 24.56% 28.47% 30.9% 33%
Christian 2.61% 3.32% 3.7%
Sikh 0.08% 0.07% 0.08%
Buddhist 0.15% 0.29% 0.19%
Jain 0.09% 0.09% 0.09%

It may be noted that, during 1991-2001, Hindu population grew by 22.49 lakh, with an annual growth rate of 1.49 per cent, whereas Muslim population rose by 18.67 lakh, with an annual growth rate of 2.93 per cent, nearly double the Hindu growth rate.

 

 

Even if you turn all your womenfolk to human producing machines this rate is impossible to achieve.

 

Friends,please offer your support to the people  people of Assam who have been as Indians as we all are for the last 200 years politically and thousands of years culturally.

 

Thank you
