West Bengal & Assam elections almost happen simultaneously, so what will happen in Assam will depend on Mamata Banerjee & what transpires in Bengal, Rajya Sabha MP Dev tells ThePrint.

What a shameless person Ms. Dev is!
Her father, Santosh Mohan Dev, was a legend in north-east India. Always championed the cause of Barak valley and was instrumental in many development works.
And what did the daughter do?
When the Assam government finalised a green-field airport for Silchar (a project sure to boost trade, connectivity and jobs), Ms. Sushmita Dev went ahead and instigated the tea garden workers of the Doloo Tea Estate – which was to be acquired for the purpose of building the airport. Her consistent efforts at misleading the simple workers finally succeeded and they launched massive coordinated protests. This resulted in the greenfield airport project getting shelved.
No wonder Ms. Dev finds a guru in Ms. Mamata Banerjee. She emulated her guru very beautifully thereby denying the people of Barak Valley the opportunity to have a full fledged civilian airport.
