why are we afraid of Perfecting our union ?

Ever since, the demand or agitation for a separate Telangana broke out media organizations, Neo intellectuals (who either lived life with out a struggle or perhaps never saw one ! ) and of course newly made capitalists are hell bent with a rot rhetoric for no further division of states , their argument is simple , they believe that dividing states is a ploy of politicians and there is no scope for common man to involve themselves with such agitation. for me this argument is absolutely a non sense and ill logical and perhaps shows , the extent to which this generation has come to believe in the philosophy of "All is well".

less these people may know that a country of 1 billion population with an imperialistic structure for governanace and adminstration requires more number of states to streamline efficiency and governance to the needy. it is a know fact that , modern Indian states were formed on linguistic basis but , there are uncharted regions with in india , which were forcilbly integrated with states solely on the basis language rather than cultural / socio economic disparities, Telangana presents a case in point, its Language, custom and tribal culture differs in contrast with the Andhra culture. another example being the region of Gorkhaland in Darjeeling which is altogether a different story and even a different ball game alltogether, its language, race, customs and lifestyle simply doesn't match up with Bengali culture. so where is the logic of states formed on linguistic basis ?

for decades the ruling classes who were aware fortunately / unfortunately about how system works in this country , exploited these common masses who form the bulk of India's population , and who include the tribes and the backward communities. the list of exploitation in official places has never ended be it from a Job of a local school teacher to seceretary to a minster, where mocking on people's language, accent and culture was a routine occupation of people who are now opposed to smaller states, Even now these pseudo ruling classes are on their way by manipulating cultures with emotional blackmailing , igniting passions of disadvantages of sepaprate states and with rhetoric like weakening of nationalism are being used to deny the rights of ethinic people. it is this very attitude of not empowering people , which has let us down on being backward when compared with the rest of the world.

good news and ray of Hope:

the good news is that freedom of Speech and right to liberty or fundamental rights are still firm in india and as a citizen I am proud of these attributes that my nation gives me . recently the cheif Minister of the most populous state Uttar pradesh Mayawati voluntarily wrote a letter to the prime minister for (urging him ) creating new states dividing U.P , which in it self is a bold decision . where else you can find the head of the state urging the federal government to disintegrate the state for the purpose of development and strengthening regional identity ?


unwanted and unrelenting fear or hatred against fellow citizen and to exploit the weak has been the hall mark of Indian society , that same mentality is pushing a minority group of Indians to propagate their version of imaginary India , which is far from reality..where empowerment and affirmative actions have become mere political bogey to garner votes rather than truely empowering people with efficient administration and governance.

where should we head now ?

Government should rise above partisan politics and empower backward regions , Just the way it created new states of Jharkhand, chattisgarh and uttarakhand it should create new states from backward regions of Northeast, Telangana, Vidharbha and break U.P to Bhundelkand, Harith pradesh . so that all the areas develop to their full potential . and government should not be carried away by emotional blackmailing of super rich politicians who are either fundamentalist chauvnist / lunatic about their faith or have vested family interest in real estates or mining. let lowly and poor of India be served so that our federal structure becomes truly democratic .
