The rise of regionalism :a threat to country's integrity

[Swarup Datta]

It now seems to be a distant past when we could talk about an undivided India. What's disheartening is that the people who dream of running the largest democracy of the world are the ones to sow the seeds of regionalism. The recent agenda of MNS to drive out North Indians is a shameful act, nevertheless it's supported by the people calling themselves the 'son of the soil'.
My recent experience in one of the crowded locals of Mumbai was horrifying. A well educated marathi person started howling at a guy from the east for no reason at all. His wordings "mumbai ghan ali ahein " i.e garbage have come down to mumbai was not only derogatory but a rape of integrity.

Politicians just to earn a political mielage can't be allowed to do this at the cost of the country's integrity, secularity and democracy. what do you have to say on this ?

Absolutely I agree with you.I remember reading a news paper article making Marathi a compulsory language in schools.This sounds like separating the ppl based on the language.
