Now-a-days, the term “Band” has become much popular to the agitators in the North Eastern Region, particularly in Assam. In this part of India, agitators as well as insurgent groups find at least a minor reason or cause against them, to protest, they resorted the easiest of way of “Band” phenomena, which is engraved in their programmes. In every month, three or four or more such “Band” is compulsory here in Assam. Sometimes, it declared abruptly. Such sordid activities are going on in this part of India. In consequence of such activities, basically, the general people have to suffer irreparable lose. Moreover, Bomb blast and man killing has become regular items
of the local News Paper in this area.  General people ever remain in tension. I think, such base activities are rare in other part of India and the life styles of people are more smooth and free from unwanted tension.  But it is noticeable that, the so-called Government here, remiss to its proper duty. Even the political parties and their so-called leaders are also silent in their moral duties. Rather off and on, such guys are habituated, direct or indirect, to have connivance such activities.

            Although, the different courts in India have declared that the “Band” in any nature, is unlawful act in the eye of law.On the other hand, Administrative authority is not ready to control such sordid activities sternly. As this authority has now become puppet in the hands of concerned political leaders. They act merely, on the will of ruling party. Consequently, people in this area, have no faith on this authority. People in this part have no security in their life and property. Alas! What kind of democracy it is, where we live in? Is democracy means- Of the people, By the people, For the people? Whether true democracy is existed in India as well as in NE region?
