Hangover of Raj in Republic of India
Some days back, in China, someone gave the theory that how India can be fragmented. There was strong reaction against it. However, in the hitched report, there is wisdom given by Vayalar Ravi, a Union Minister. If that is the perception of a government then China is quite confident about its evaluation.

Chinai Chun Chun karai
A report in Times of India about an article on a website of China about the balkanization of India is quite disturbing.
It also drives attention of Indian intellectuals to a major shortcoming about making their historic perception straight. Caste, Hinduism dominance, India as a nation was never there are all construct of historians of Colonial Period and Cambridge School of thought. There is an urgent need to correct our paradigms used in evaluation of our record. China has a long tradition of history since the time of Herodotus. It is their historic sense which is imparting them the strength. In India, there is need to supply the similar strength by correcting the perception of nation about its heritage. The Hindu population is also expected to sit and ponder upon their social milieu and direction which it is taking. The Ekta Kapoor Mindset, Rakhi Sawant type mentality are becoming the main paradigms on which we are building our society now these days. Such a trend may materialize the dream of Chun Chun China if we do not awake. We have lived under servitude for 1000 years, first of Turks and then of Nordic race. After 63 years, if somebody, which could be broken into 15 parts (China on geographical level is composed of 15 socio cultural boundaries defined by geographical limits) itself, borrowing from historic constructs of erstwhile racial and imperialist races, behave in foolish manner, then before reacting we must arrange our own house first and immediately. Yes there is a need. Thanks Chun Chun, you have said this thing.
I passing one must remember even American broke in 73 years after adopting her constitution in 1787. It fought Civil War in 1860 to settle in the internal conflicts. America was lucky because Mexico was not that strong and other big countries were more engaged in continental turmoil. But India has to remain attentive.
