"Immigrant" Manki Baat / Inner Voice

It is unfortunate for the people of north - east India to alarm as Immigrant in India either in Delhi or Bangalore or Kolkatta or in other parts of India against the same citizen under the spiritual psycho of the Indian constitution. It is also unfortunate for the people of mainstream India who have been keeping the inner voice or manki baat on such characters since the making of India. It may also be the characteristic vision and inner voice of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi (NAMO) in his or their holy book or vision document of BJP’s think tank at Delhi. But, such vivid characters which was pronounced from mainstream party show the reality of all the mainstream people’s inner voice or manki baat. Thus, it is the spiritual manki baat or inner voice of all the mainland Indian in practice.

Now, the Mongoloid stock of north - east India intensely convinced the inner voice or manki baat of all the mainstream people or political parties besides NAMO or BJP. Then, it inspires and reliant on the people of north - east India who have their own colours, identities and traditional values to unite and uphold oneness for the future protection and self- defence. It further increases the spirit of separatism and insurrection to the people of north - east India from the mainland India.

The reality is not the manki baat or the inner voice of the NAMO or BJP’s vision document in Delhi election. But, it is the vision of all the people of mainland India since long back who deviated the liberty and sovereignty of the people of north - east region.

Thus, the term “Immigrant” when used by the BJP’s vision document in Delhi election under the banner of BJP’s think tank, why should it be wrong ? It was a true sense which prescript the sincered version. But, unfortunation took place when people of north east India erupted to divert the true sense in a faded technique saying, “inadverting mistake”. Then the Prime Minister confessed the north east people (mostly mongoloid tribe) to placade by replacing the terminology as “people from north - east India to be protected”. It is all to know that the NAMOS’s version was pacifying on the document without any cleansing through the heart and mind of the mainland India.

Let it be compromised or confessed or pacified the different versions. On the way, some boundaries are there to bind the unmatching surfaces between the mainland India and the north - east. How did such surfaces arise ? May it be the differences on human stocks (Mongoloid and non-Mongoloid), traditional differences on the historical evolutions, etc.

But, many intellectuals observed that it was true to the notify the north east people of India as “Immigrant” because of non-Indian through mainland and north - east people of India. When the north - east people are in Delhi or somewhere in the part of mainland India, they are mostly different from the mainland people of India. Sometimes, questions arise such as, are you coming from Thailand or Japan or Korea ? and so on.

On such questions most answers are not true to the knowledge of the questioners against their thinking. These questions generally moved from the foreigners in India and the mainland people of India in general. On the other hand, most people of north - east India think that they are a neglected part of India and not a true Indian by origin. But, in both the above conditions north - east people are part of India in spiritual and in practice.

The term spiritual and practice are used here to analyse further when the term “Immigrant” replaced by the formal version of “protection”. It is now more expanding the terminology from “Immigrant” to “protection”. A simple question may be put here that why the term “protection” is used for the term “Immigrant”? It is also loosing something. As in India why should the north - east people be protected by the Government of India ?

Protection of north - east people means the people of north - east India has been availed no right and duties under the Indian Constitution, in the form of fundamental rights and duties under the Indian Constitution. To get these, Government needs to protect us and north - east people needs their protection in the part of mainland India. The same citizen of India should get same status of rights and duties granted under the constitution. If the same status is fully granted and available to the people of north east, then why the people of north - east be protected? It is unfair, untruth, unfaithful, and fake. It is cheating the people of north - east India and practically unjustified to protect the north-east people.

It is the fallacy of the Government or the mainland people to the people of north east by using the different version for the same connotation. This is the question of the rights for the people of north-east India who have distinct cultures, identities, colours and characters. It is the question of dependency to another group or another contry’s citizen groups under the same country, same rule and same constitution. It also shows the deprivation of the Mongoloid minority of the nort-east India.

In such situation, the leading country in Asia like China is inclining to the people and region of north-east India as their resemblance to the mongoloid blood. Thus, it is also a question of regional power competing China on such a large democratic country to run a Government with such mistake. In such long history of the democratic rule of India, north-east people’s movement always instigate the feeling of secessionism for the people of the entire north-east people as natural principle. On the other hand, people from the mainland India are also living with fear as non - Indian in most part of the north-east region of India. This is also one of the most important factor that must be analysed. The feelings of sectarians are the most important on different ground based on the historical phenomena.

Thus, it may conclude that the inner voice of the mainland people of India is the spiritual voice for all the mainland Indian. It was unfortunate when NAMO and BJP’s vision document versed the word “Immigrant” for the people of north-east India and finally replaced by the term “protection”.

It simply knows to all the sentiments that the people of north-east India are keeping and thinking internally as the unclear or second citizen of India. It is the vision that might have been a part of the BJP’s vision document if no movement occurred in the part of north-east India. It is shameful to the Prime Minister of India to pronounce as “mistake”. But, the people of north-east India shall never believe the “manki baat” which have different version on the same agenda.
