There was someone on BRF that mentioned - the first occurance of the figure 2000 appeared in a report by the British High commision. Since then the number has been bandied about like Sachin Tendulkar's batting stats.
If one gages the sincerity of DDM and assorted NGOs, dont look further than Bihar and Assam. In Assam, some 250 Biharis were hacked to death just a year after Godhra-kand. Farm workers, construction workers, shopkeers, students, women raped. Did any of the worthies even visit Tinsukia, Dibrugarh, Bongaigaon, Dhubri and Nalbari? Forget visit, do they even know how Biharis got massacred in these places as they slept? Has anybody so far raised how long Congress CM Tarun Gogoi took to call para-military forces to quell the fury? Has anybody investigated what Prafulla Kumar Mahanta exposed? That Gogoi and Congress paid 50 lakhs to the ULFA not to target Congress leaders during the assembly elections?
The high preist of secularism - native son of Bihar nontheless - showed videos of mussalmans being attacked in faraway Gujarat - not one of them a Bihari. While Gogoi goes about hacking Biharis in broad daylight just one state away.
Only Gujarat it is! <!--emo&:mad--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
