==== Category:Assamese people ====
DELETE: Unlike other ethnic categorizations like Bengalis, Gujratis, Tamils etc. of India, ''Assamese'' is neither a linguistic nor an ethnic category. It is rather a multi-ethnic, multi-linguistic, multi-religious political category<ref>[[People of Assam]]</ref>. In many cases, the categorization is confusing and controvercial. For example, for centuries, Bodos were considered integral part of Assamese. However, for political reasons, in recent days, many Bodos distanced themselves from rest of Assamese. The definition of Assamese people is still in fluid state and is being hotly debated<ref>[[Assamese people]]</ref>. Till the definition is finalized, the category is strongly recommended to delete.
