Labourer Imdadul Rahman stalked and sexually harassed a young indigenous woman on her way to classes in Nirjuli, Arunachal Pradesh. He followed her, touched her inappropriately and exposed himself; the brave victim confronted and chased him with stones.

Congratulations Assam Government, you just made the Bodos turn against the Assamese language!

As an Assamese person, requesting all Assamese people to maintain restraint and peace with our Bodo brethren.

Gutkha consumption across Indian states shows huge regional differences

According to NFHS-5 (2019–21), around 14.5% of Indian men aged 15–49 reported consuming gutkha or paan masala with tobacco. But the state-wise differences are massive. Nagaland (34.3%), Gujarat (33.6%), Odisha (31.1%), Madhya Pradesh (29.6%), and Uttar Pradesh (27.6%) recorded some of the highest rates, while Kerala (0.6%), Andhra Pradesh (1%), and Jammu & Kashmir (0.4%) remained among the lowest.

The data highlights how smokeless tobacco consumption in India is heavily shaped by regional habits, culture, awareness levels, and public health enforcement. Despite multiple state-level bans and anti-tobacco campaigns, gutkha remains widely consumed in several parts of the country and continues to be linked with rising oral cancer and other health risks.

Help Save 22 Month-Old Manasree from Tripura Battling SMA

You can verify about this news from facebook too

I'm posting here so that it can reach for people

Manasree Choudhury, a 22-month-old baby girl from Tripura, is battling Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) a rare and severe genetic disorder that gradually weakens the body’s muscles and affects movement. Her condition requires urgent treatment with Zolgensma, a life-saving injection that costs around ₹16 crore, which is far beyond what her family can afford. Her parents are trying their best to save her, but they need public support to make this treatment possible. This is an appeal to anyone who can help , whether by donating, sharing her story, or spreading the word further.

Even a small contribution can bring her one step closer to treatment and give this little girl a chance at life.

A clear case of appeasement: The Government has decided to remove Bodo from the Legislative Assembly logo and replace it with Hindi, and also add Hindi as a functioning language in a legislative assembly.

The Assam government has decided to remove the Bodo language from the logo of the Assam Legislative Assembly and instead replace it with Hindi. Likewise, in the Legislative Assembly, Hindi will also be added as a functioning language alongside Assamese, English and Bodo. This is a clear case of the government ignoring the indigenous people and appeasing outsiders. Hindi has no history in Assam. If the government wanted, they could've added Mising, Arleng (Karbi), Dimasa, Rabha, Tiwa, Deori, Koch, Bishnupriya or Zeme Naga but they chose a completely foreign language. This will result badly.

Meghalaya, India. Saw this thing flying around for a couple seconds at around 6pm today on 4/07/2026 before it vanished into thin air. No clouds were in its trajectory.

I saw it with my own eyes and it was disc- shaped. It made no sound. Probably was an airship or some sort of aircraft. It was flying at a rather closer height. Let me know your thoughts on this!

Saw this in the Tripura subreddit. Feeling sad for the indigenous Tiprasas and Kokborok speakers. Feeling worse knowing that our other Northeastern states are also going on the same direction and one day we'll also be in their position, below others... #SaveNortheast

Remembering the first martyr of the Assamese Language Movement, Swahid Ranjit Borpujari on the day of his martyrdom. জয় আই অসম

Swahid Ranjit Borpujari was a 18 year old student from Sivasagar, born in 1942 and studied in the Cotton College of Guwahati. During the Assamese language movement protests also known as 'অসমীয়া ভাষা আন্দোলন' of the 1960s for the recognition of the Assamese language as the sole official language of the state of Assam, Ranjit Borpujari was shot in a police firing on 4th of July 1960, dying for his mother tongue at the age of 18 becoming the first martyr of the Assamese Language Movement. Alongside him, many others like Swahid Sishir Nag, Swahid Surya Bora, Swahid Mozammil Haque and Swahid Anil Bora gave their lives for their mother tongue, Assamese. Since then, 4th of July is celebrated as the martyrdom day of Swahid Ranjit Borpujari across Assam. Below is a song that celebrates the Assamese language and I feel it is the most appropriate one to remember our language martyrs.

"চিৰ চেনেহী মোৰ ভাষা জননী।

আই ধন্যে পুণ্যে হৃদ-পাৱনী।

প্ৰকৃতি পৰশ ৰসে অমল কমল,

চঞ্চল হৃদি জ্বলে ঢালে পৰিমল।

কোমল চপাৰ কলি,

ঢৌৱে ঢৌৱে ঢৌৱে তুলি,

ৰিণিকি ৰিণিকি কোনে তোলে ৰাগিণী।।

সংসাৰ গুৰুভাৰে অৱশ পৰাণ,

হিয়াত বিলীন হয় হিয়া ভৰা গান।

কাৰ নিচুকনি শুনা,

শুনি বানী ব্যথা পমা,

চকুতে চকুৰ নীৰে লয় জিৰণি।।

জীৱনে মৰণে ৰণে লহৰী সুধাৰ,

ৰসনা শিতানে বহি সিঁচা শতধাৰ।

হে' মোৰ মধুৰননা,

মাগিছোঁ মাধুৰী কণা,

দিয়া দিয়া দিয়া আই মধুভাষিনী।।"

-মিত্ৰদেৱ মহন্তদেৱ (১৮৯৪-১৯৮৩)

This WESEAN/Northeastern ethnonationalism has gone too far. Especially online. We need to call it out.

Those account and trolls are probably here too, but they need to hear this. Stop what you are doing.

So many accounts have been found, promoting NE ethnic superiority, ruthlessly mocking mainlanders and shitting the entire country of India. You do realize what you are doing? You are biting the hand that feeds you.

Already, many mainlanders are getting tired of our constant complaining and cries for racism. Now you add this unneccesary hostility and unprovoked racism.

Twitter and facebook have started note of it too. Doyichi/ airfilter is the prime example. None of this is a secret anymore. Northeast Indians are racist and act bold in their areas. The word is out.

Thankfully, it's usually just trolling but some accounts go too far and start supporting violence on innocents or militancy or straight up glorify China. What was the point of all that begging for sympathy if you are like this. Let me remind you, China will not be good to us. They will flood us with their people, change our culture and not see us as equal. India is much better.

If you live in India(which 99.9% of us do) you have to love and respect the land and people. Stop this disgusting behaviour.

It's just calling for worse counter-reactions and making it more dangerous for our people in the mainland.
