Assamese News channel _Pratidin Time_ is at it again. Last year, it was about the clothes women in the state choose to wear, this time it’s about how women in Assam lost their moral compass

under the previous regime. We didn’t make that up. The news package is essentially an ode to the new Bharatiya Janata Party Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, who is referred to as “the last

hope” of Assam. It also says the earlier governments looted and plundered the state. Apparently, according to _Pratidin Time_, they also corrupted the women in the state and taught them to

be “bereft of character”. “…girls do something in their offices we only hear rumors if their return home late or do not return at all we can’t even say anything our democracy has taught us
