Rise of Regional Blocs Threatens Independent Nations like India

India is a linguistic country. In India there are lot of states having there different castes, creed, culture and education (up to S. S. C). The major problem is language. I am andrapradesh I don't know tamil, marati, gujarati. etc. Also the regional parties also divided India. National parties also tie up with regional parties and they decreasing the value of nationalism. Regional parties demanding national parties today.

Every one tell I'm Indian and afterwards tell the state.

Regional power are part of the federal structure but the union is not able take them all along because of their selfishness for their state people. They ignore the national requirement. There are many incident states are fighting for water, power, even land dispute among themselves which allows the anti nationals like naxals, terrorism and corruption to flourish.

Rise or regional block is threaten only if it happens negatively. A regional growth can lead to competition and over all development of state.

Central government sometime over look the state developments so its here regional development can play a good role.

India is huge country so working smoothly of a country as whole gets difficult. Where as if its decentralized and taken as a block d progress becomes easier.

Imagine you have to run a company as whole it will be difficult for you to do everything alone. But if you divide and delegate work in proper way it mite get easier.

Regional block is good if it is use in positively. If there is not any regional block then we will fail to save culture and heritage. For example I am from non-Hindi speaking state so it is my duty to save our mother tongue and use it as much as possible Because Indian government is imposing Hindi on us. It is very difficult to develop equally in a large country like India. If there is any regional block to deal this issue then we should support it for the interest of our nation. Because our body can not work properly if you do not take care of any part of the body.

I do agree with the fact that regional blocs threaten nation like India.
-Firstly there must be a clear knowledge about region & religion.
-Secondly in an independent nation unity is what should prevail.
-Thirdly regional blocs might unite a region or two but our unity as an Indian takes a back seat.
-Fourthly its regional blocs which is the cause behind the economic difference between states.
-It was this regional blocs which led to the north-eastern indian running away from west south states.
Therefore in my opinion India should be looked Upon as a country & regional blocks should not be allowed to creep in.
It is unity as a country which makes one feel like home & not blocs.

Yes, I think rise of regional-blocs-threatens independent nations like India. As India is a good example of national integrity where people from different castes and religions used to live together happily. But British started ruling over India by divide and rule through religions. And now a days, politicians are applying the same rule resulting in the situation for regional blocs. But the rise of regional blocs will destroy our unity and integrity. So, there is a need to create awareness among society people and should be encouraged to maintain integrity, otherwise its threatening effect will be seen on independent country like India.

Yes rise of regional blocks threatens our nation. India is a cosmopolitan nation. Here people from different religions live together. Britishers ruled our nation for several years and they had the opinion that "divide and rule ".

Now we are suffering from the same situation and politicians are following the same thing.

So we should be develop awareness among our community and should keep the integrity between us.

India is a democratic country. Where all sorts of people lives irrespective of background caste creed etc. According to my point of view its we human only who had categorized them self into assorted religion. When a newly baby is born he or she doesn't knows that to which religion he belongs to its we human who who used to differentiate and assigned him to one particular religion. As a human we all must have one thing in the mind that RELIGION UNITS IT NEVER DIVIDES But as the India is now under the affluence of corruption which results in promotion of discrimination hat-redness etc so definitely Rise of Regional Blocs Threatens Independent Nations like India. So in order to reduce the menace of this we must create the awareness among the people of brotherhood national integrity through mass campaign advertisement etc.

Thank you.

In recent times the feeling of regionalism is being infused by the politicians to harvest their selfish ambitions. The results have been catastrophic. Divided states like Jharkhand and Chattisgarh have naxalite presence, moreover the revenue of the state is affected, newly formed states have power, water sharing issues hence leading to more animosity between the people of the state than it was before. Hence regionalism should be strictly boycotted and a stringent laws should be passed making sure that non abiding politicians who promote regionalism face severe punishment.

Creation of regional block implies carving out an area out of the country based on the culture of the people of that area, the languages they speak and the customs they follow.

India is a secular country and is known all over the world for its varied culture, customs, etc. It is this unity among the Indians that separate the country from the rest of the world.

Dividing India into regional blocks would certainly hamper the very preamble of our constitution which talks about national integrity. New states may face numerous problems of terrorism, water, electricity distribution, etc.

The political parties supporting creation of separate states on the basis of religion, etc. Actually have selfish motive. They are following the policy of divide and rule which, as history testifies has had a demeaning effect on the Indians.

Having said that, we cannot ignore the fact that there may be certain groups within a state which might feel that their interests is not significantly represented. For example, the Gorkhas in northern West Bengal are demanding a separate state based on this very argument. However, rather than dividing the state, the government might come out with better prospects.

One such measure may be to take steps to improve quality of living of such people, provide them better education, healthcare, etc. Besides, as advocated by Subash Ghising (the leader of National Liberation Front for Gorkhland) , the particular regions can be given special status under schedule 6 of the Indian constitution. This would not only resolve the problem of the so called "neglected communities", but would also maintain the unity of the nation.

If the supporters of regional blocks can take every steps to create a separate state, they could also fight for improving the conditions of these communities, thus making them a part of our very own country "India".
