try { if ((sUserLength > 0) && (mstatus == true) ) {} else { document.write(' '); } } catch(er) {cookiestring=' '; sUserLength=0;} Guwahati, Feb 2 (IANS) The hype in the northeast around "Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2005" - a musical TV show that has a contestant from Assam in the top two - has prompted the rebel United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) to react. The outlawed group has said the singer from Assam, Debojit Saha, should make his stand clear on the promotion of Hindi music in the state - something the ULFA is dead against. The show aired on Zee TV every Thursday and Friday has reached a climax with Debojit among the top two. Although results are expected to be formally announced Friday. Only one more performance is left to clinch the "Voice of India" title. "We respect Debojit's musical talent. But is the hype and support for Debojit justified, as we ought to know if he has really helped promote the cause of the state's folk music through 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa'?" ULFA said in a statement Thursday in its mouthpiece Swadhinata. "We are not going to tolerate the promotion of Hindi music in our state. It is time Debojit made his stand clear," the rebel statement added. ' + 'Surf \'' + 'N' + '\' Earn -' + 'Sign innow' + '
