India Unity
India is land of variety. There is great variety in variety of aspects. The languages, lifestyles, religions, habits, geography, climates, cultures might be different but still they unite us into an invisible frame, the frame of Indianism. Diversity is there in every aspect of India, a land that encloses 1,222,559 sq. meters of land and is home to more than one billion people. As such stats imply, there ought to be diversity, but this does not always imply that there are differences. Rather, India is a land where in spite of so much of diversity, there is still unity. Be it the joining of hands for a mission or against it, Indians have always shows great unity.

There have also been instances where people have fought against each other for some reason or the other but such cases do break out in all countries, so India being a niche of such diversity can be excused for once!

India won't be India if not for this diversity. If India means Kanchivaram sadi then India also means Pashmina shawl. If India means extreme hot climate of the south India, then India also means the snow covered mountains of the north India. If India means the desert of Rajasthan then India also means the highest rainfall grounds of Assam!

Such diversity is also found in the school of minds, where one stands for the motion, another stands against it. This means an added advantage, because while one is looking at the positive aspects of a side, other is hunting for the counterpart negatives.

The diversity of India has a great edge over the plain unanimously joint countries! It might be speculated that is just another starry eyed optimist opinion, but then if we didn't differ wouldn't we be

    India is in the centre of a very serious conflict in the world today. It is a very diverse place composed of people from many different religious backgrounds that come from many different regions. Two of the country’s main religions, Muslim and Hindu, have been fighting for hundreds of years for many different reasons. Their feelings of hatred and mistrust for each other are embedded in their memories and will not be forgotten easily. The worst part is there seems to be no initial plan for compromise between the two groups. Though there are many reasons for this conflict, only a few will be touched on. Those that will be touched on are the Islamic attacks on Indian Parliament, the anti-Muslim textbooks, and the Deganga Riots. These are all recent examples of the feud between these two religions and how they are not letting the past go. The Muslim-Hindu relationship is declining and there is no sign of letting up in the near future.…

    We Indians boast about unity in diversity as we have many varieties of religions, castes and communities but do we really appreciate and embrace this difference? The answer is a big no. We, in our school textbooks, read about this and discuss this very briefly but what we fail to do is to analyse the present situation. Today I saw a documentary on honor killings. Honor killings are done under the name of protecting the caste name.…

    India has a history of being a fractured nation, at times this disunity was even able to save them from being taken over by conquerors like Alexander the Great. However, their luck was doomed to run out. India has always been a country rich in resources, making it natural prey to the British imperialists who not only wished to exploit these resources but the people of India as well. With a viewpoint such as this, it’s simple to see why Indian's view of British Imperialists evolved into yet another divided nation, with some coming to accept and see the benefits of Britain's political control, while others couldn’t come to terms with how easily the British system disregarded them and how altered it was from the once great Mughal Empire. Despite…

    If countries can be defined by their socio-cultural make-up alone it would be a difficult task to define India and its subsequent ‘Indianness’. Given its multi-cultural set-ups, where each culture and its sub-culture is a separate world of its own, it is not only presumptuous but narrow-minded to define national identity in such a manner. It cannot be based on class distinctions either. If on one hand we have the destitute scavenging for food in dust-bins, the…

    India won freedom in 1947, but the communal politics had begun to raise its head. The Muslim League and Jinnah could not accept anything less than a separate country — Pakistan as against Hindustan — that was Bharat. It is from here that rifts began to surface up on communal and caste lines.…

    In India from time immemorial, people belonging to various religious faiths lived in harmony and peace. There are fundamental values and traditions in our culture that promote integration among different communities. This was helpful for the growth of a great civilization in the Indian sub-continent. It will be our endeavour as the citizens of this country to preserve the rich tradition of Social Harmony among diverse religious and ethnic groups and pass it over to the future generations. Even though communal tensions in India are well under control, there is no place for complacency as many internal and external forces are waiting with their ulterior motives sowing the seeds of ill-will.…

    India, like every other country, has its own fixed boundaries that are natural. On one side there are high Himalayan mountains and the other three sides are practically surrounded by oceans. India is limited within boundaries that are evidence of geographical unity, a unity which baffles the scholars who themselves live in small European countries and find it difficult to comprehend how such a large country with so much variety of nature can be united.…

    The idea of difference or strangeness dominates the human psyche. We, as a species, believe that we are ‘different’ from animals. Even as individuals, we believe that we are different from the ‘others’. Such a belief, which is the outcome of social, cultural and religious moorings shapes our identity. It also develops our perspective, shapes our attitude and defines our understanding of the world around us. In a multi-cultural and multi-religious country like India, the interests of various groups tend to diverge. A society fears its identity and culture being swapped whether within the state or the country; smaller groups within a state or province have legitimate fears of being overridden by larger or more powerful groups. This happens when we adopt a solitarist approach to human identity, which sees human beings as members of only one group. The idea of a distinct identity is not about being good or bad. It is simply an idea. However, this idea of exclusivity which is emerging in India is worrisome.…
