State Division India
STATE DIVISIONS IN INDIA-my view

INDIA AS WE ALL KNOW GOT its awaiting independence in 1947.but is it fully true? Maybe not! Because India became free from foreign control completely in 1961, when the Portuguese left goa and some other adjoining regions in 1961 after military action.

FREEDOM from the major invader THE EAST INDIA COMPANY SAW INDIA IN A STRONG STATE TO BUILD A NEW NATION WHICH WOULD BE ECONOMICALLY TERMED AS A DEVELOPING NATION.but was it enough for india to get freedom?? 2 years from then saw major setback. India was partitioned for the first time in 1947 from Pakistan. It was a religion based partition. It gave a major setback to the economy and also politically. Mass destruction of property and life took place. But then the partition was based on some unexplained topics which is not my concern in this article. what I want to present gives the idea about what is the present day condition of this large country with even large population divided in very bigger regions which seems difficult to administrate as a whole.

Today in 2013….

India has 28 states. state has its own government some are under president control.

Some bigger states want to get separated from its counterpart based on linguistic division. Taking example of Andhra Pradesh. Being fourth largest in india based on land area and ranked 5th on basis of population. It has 42 seats in lok sabha.

These facts give a conclusion that it is a very important state to India in every ways.
Its on a verge of division.
I am not concerned with the reasons behind. I am not concerned even with political views behind this.

What I am concerned with is that some of the states in india are very big to administrate from a single table government likes of Andhra Pradesh, uttar Pradesh, rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, mahrashtra.
Dividing of the states on basis of religion or language sounds foul as it loosens the integrity of the nation and leads to political and regional unrest.

    After 200 years of being control by an island thousands of mile away, it was time to break free. Circa 1500, England and other European countries began to colonize India. It is believed that the Independence Movement there began in the 1850’s, although India didn’t become a fully self-governing country until the 1940’s. This movement is an example of peaceful revolution, and in large part was led by activist Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi. Gandhi, born in 1869, led some the movement and was assassinated in 1948. India fought for many years for independence, but was able to win with the help of Gandhi, who influenced not only his country, but many others including other civil leaders as well.…

    Federalism is a basic feature of the Constitution of India in which the Union of India is permanent and indestructible. Both the Centre and the States are co-operating and coordinating institutions having independence and ought to exercise their respective powers with mutual adjustment, respect, understanding and accommodation. Tension and conflict of the interests of the Centre and the respective units is an integral part of federalism. Prevention as well as amelioration of conflicts is necessary. Thus, the Indian federalism was devised with a strong Centre. Federalism with a strong Centre was inevitable as the framers of the Indian Constitution were aware that there were economic disparities as several areas of India were economically as well as industrially far behind in comparison to others. The nation was committed to a socio economic revolution not only to secure the basic needs of the common man and economic unity of the country but also to bring about a fundamental change in the structure of Indian society in accordance with the egalitarian principles. With these considerations in mind the Constitution makers devised the Indian federation with a strong Union.…
