Who is ASSAMESE?

I always knew and know that INDIA has a single citizenship!! but, I  saw many literate fools, claiming BODOS and other indigenous tribes of  Assam such as KARBI, RABHA, MISHING, GARO, DIMASHA, etc. etc. to be  Assamese.. there can never be a proper definition for Assamese. Because  people of Delhi do not call themselves as Delhian, Maharastra do not  call Maharastrian, Bangalore do not call as Bangalorian, Meghalaya do not call Meghalayan, then why people  of Assam should be called as Assamese?? Its not UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! its INDIA! We have no dual citizenship! WE have only one nationality!! INDIAN!!!
 ASSAM is only demarcation of place or area, there is no such term as ASSAMESE!
 1st of all we are INDIANS, &
 2nd to which ever tribe or race you belong to!
If you ask a person in India, from where you belong to? 
Answer will be...
I am from Punjab n I am Punjabi
From Gujarat-Gujarati
From Bengal-Bengali
That's because there is indeed communities and tribes known as Punjabi, Gujarati, Bengali etc.
Now I would like to inform that there is no tribe or community known as ASSAMESE.
The term ASSAMESE is only given by
some small sections of people to  gain political power! And the language Assamese is only the modification  of Bengali Language, it was only when American Baptist missionary Miles Bronson and his associates including Nathan Brown and Oliver Cutter arrived in Assam in 1836, they discovered the tunes of the speech quit different from that of Bengali so, they worked for the restoration of the Assamese language to avoid it being overtaken by the Bengali language completely. In order to restore the Assamese Language, he took the matter to the British India administration of the time. Even today we can see many dialects and tunes different from that of Official Assamese Language, especially in Lower Assam, it is natural that a language can differ a little when it comes in viewing the geographical area, therefore since Assam was also a part of Bengal, the language there, was indeed a Bengali Language. Before 1873 Bengali was the medium of instruction in the whole of Assam.  

*NOTE- The ASSAM state was not created on LINGUISTIC BASIS.

We BODOS & other indigenous tribes living in  Assam have our own language and cultures and can't be the victim of this term Assamese.. Many indigenous  tribes have lost their language and culture just because they call  themselves Assamese!! We are Boro and always will be.. we have  our own identity! WE CAN ONLY BE TERMED AS INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF  ASSAM...

 The whole of NORTH EAST was divided just because the people who call themselves as ASSAMESE tried to dominate other regions.

In 1953, the government was forced to create a separate state of Andhra Pradesh for Telugu-speaking people following the long-drawn agitation and death of Potti Sriramulu after a hunger strike for 56 days. Thus, the first linguistic state of Andhra Pradesh was created under pressure.

 Few years back People of 'Bihar' tried calling themselves as 'Biharis'.  So, it resulted in carving out half of the state from Bihar known as  'Jharkhand' which comprises of a large number of Adivasi people residing  over there and are basically different from the Biharis in origin.

 Similarly people of Andhra Pradesh tried calling themselves as Andhra therefore Telengana was recently carved out.

 Therefore, if the people of Assam continues to call themselves as  Assamese then it will certainly result in carving out the Bodoland state  sooner from the expected period of time.

WE ARE BODOS!! 
WE CAN ONLY BE TERMED AS INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF ASSAM.
