HHi, to me for all this our foreign policy is responsible that means we made a 3 front which exist, then we made out ourself as very peace seeking and tolerant country. These basic aspect of our country has made us to be worse country in world when it comes to our foreign policy as well as other countries policy towards our nation. The other aspects are our internal problems like Corruption, State Wise population, distribution in Ration, . , poor health policy (in states like AP, UP and other north eastern states. ,) , poor planning in all sectors ie without any vision eg pwd road made then comes the pipeline then sewage. Then dig in for making up the electric line underground. Other thing is all the LAW written only for poor. Politics.
All these things directly or indirectly affects our nation and policies.
God Bless Republic Nation Of India. |

| Hi friends, this is swetha. As far as my concern regional division is not all required at present. India has been properly divided and different states are ruled by different political parties, India has to take steps to make the country developed nation. There are many issues to be solved in India such as corruption, women harassment, terrorism, inadequate public healthcare, an so on, government of India should take certain measures to stop all these things. Definitely at present if rise in regional bloc done then definitely independent nation like India will be threatened. |

| In my view, there should be Regional blocs but not the Religion blocs. Religion blocs tend to divide one religion human being from another caste. While Regional block is necessary to maintain their region from corruption and any other problem. Let say, I am a north Indian, I may not handle or understand the issue of South India. For that a block from south India has to stand against it. But when it comes to an common cause, all India should stand UNITE. |

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". |

| 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. |

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. |

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. |

| 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. |

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.

| 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. |

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 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. |

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. |

| I think when we go in for such regional division based on the topography it would be better. When we explore the various opportunities in that area and work towards development concerning each area then we will be able to grow in the regional level as well as the national level and national and international trade will improve. The only limiting factor will be everyone should work for improvement rather than personal gains. |

I dont think cretion of regional blocs will effect nationalism as far concerned it should be done taking in view emotional aspect of people of that particular region.
Dividing the region will surely ease the governace and development aspect.But the feelings of that regional people should not get hurt.Before dividing any region goverment should tell people the actual reason as well as good effects of it.If any person has land which is going to be included into division, it should resolve the matter faithfully.As well as it should take care of anti social elements also.
According to the convinience of public, it should divide the land. |

I think creating regional blocs is something we really don't need now and don't have to do now. We are alredy divided in a wide range. It was britishers who started the trend of "divide and rule" and now our very own politicians are taking it forward. The point is we all know that what politicians are doing with our country. We cannot change them or lets say there basic instict for greed. But what we can definately do is we can change our society by putting our never ending contribution against corruption and all the odds that really really need our attention.
To summarise I would say regional blocs are a very big threat to our country if we are welcoming it, but it is really not a threat if we are confident about ourselves and our beleif in unity. Stand united. Stand strong. |

Yes I agree that it is a threat and that also very much specific to India. To begin with we need to keep it in mind that being a multi-regional country somewhere or the other it was on the card. Coming to the question of threat, it will make the country weaker than ever. If we consider the time of our independence there also we got divided in two regions hence two independent nations were born- India Pakistan. And now we can see all these troubles is being caused because of that.
The more regional division means more groups to fight among themselves which ultimately deprive the country from peace and progress, as the saying goes "United we stand divided we fall".
To wrap up I would say that this is not IPL that we can enjoy the healthy competition, this is something involves our very own nation and its future. Regional blocks can create new problems only and to make out solution we have to work as a nation. |

Regional feelings will be increased which is the big threat for india's devolopment. India will be among the devoloped nations list only with the weapon of "unity" not by anything else. |

According to me, our country can be strenghthen only by proper management by Government & unity of people within a country. Instead of breaking our country furthermore into number of states, one shall make our country people united to fight against crisis in India like terrorism, corruption, price hikes etc & to include them in main stream of national progress.
Progress, Prosperity of nation doesn't depend on language, cast of people, only thing matters that people in nation are united & having positive attitude towards national growth. |

| Suppose yours view is generalized,eventually leading to the disintegeration of India into as many states as per the demand on regional,religion,cultural or on economic basis. now will that would be a testimony to a secular country,or an epitome of integrity as a nation?would it not be a slap on the face of all our martyrs who sacrificed their lives for us to live and breathe in the free air? is it not our responsibility to come out of our cocoon of regionalism,culturalism and all those ..ism and think in terms of unity. no matter where we live let not forget that we are indian,and moving one step ahead let us live for the betterment of humanity. politicians only eye their self interest,afterall who does not want to become a chief minister of a new state and loot our country in yet a different way. |

| I don't think so. Regional blocs due to change of culture and its importance can be created. We are living in 21st century and we should look at the problem for that point of view. Few years before we have created new states in form of Uttranchal, Chattisgarh and Jharkhand. The mass of these area were different from the whole state dut to cultural differences, language, development etc. Due to creation of these new blocs we have seen a significant improvement and development which were earlier not visible being with the bigger state like UP, MP and Bihar. The govt has money but do not have resources at state level to get the job done. Now samller state will have their own reqmt and which will be met with great enthusiasm. The undevloped area of Chattisgarha and Jharkhand has noticed devlopemnt in field of infrasturcute, medical facilities and education which were earlier deprived of these facilities. These new states have almost no differences with the state from whom they have fell apart. Now the Telangana problem has come up which should be delath with the same frame of mind. The telangana people have not received the development as like rest of the Andhra Pradesh. The area being costal is neglected and also is differenct from rest of the AP keeping in vies the cultural background. the creation of Telangana will not be a problem if the issue is finalised amicably. The separation of state is not a major problem but the problem is a firm command in the centre to look after the affairs and have a co-operation with state govt. Since we are republic of India and follow one constitution there will be no problem unless of until we are devied on the base of religions as was done by British when they created India and Pak. |

Friends I think that dividing states on linguistic basis will solve most of the problems in India like corruption, unemployment, and will provide equal opportunity to all.
This will make central government more stronger to administer the state government and by this all initiative and steps taken by central government will go to needy people.
And the question of division among our people the first and only identity we have is that we are Indian and I don't think that we need another identity. |

| Rise of regional blocks should not be encouraged at all. Ours only identity that we are Indian. India is a secular country where people belongs to different religion, cast, society live together. We are already divided our country on the basis of religion. Just we are repeating the history again. Politicians from different region are encouraging to create regional blocks in order to fulfill their own interest. Creation of regional blocks means hampering national integrity. Dividing the country into regional blocks isn't a solution to regional disparity. Every issues can be solved by discussing the same at national or at state level but but not at the cost of unity. |

We are already divided on the basis of states, religion, caste, culture & numerous other unnecessary reasons.

C even though all of the people following different individual nationalities, The common resources (natural) are used by the people. The disputing nationalities can may suffer in future through the resource availability. There are several ways to resolve the problems of regional blocks.

My friends my views are a little different. Creating regional blocs does not challenge the nation's integration and unity. We have 28 states and 7 union territories, that is not a threat to INDIA.
Our country is so beautiful in its culture and the rich heritage shown by each state. There is and was never a competition about whose culture is the best.
In a family, like you have healthy disputes amongst the siblings, even our country has that some times.
With the regional blocs each one has its own identity and it shows their pride of having a diverse culture.
It is a boon for our nation not a bane. |

If some enters there with some different thoughts, conflict there should be. So while consider some states in south area that will be totally different from other areas like east, north. |

Let's keep corruption aside for a while and focus on the problem like regionalism and cast-ism. The problem is not new one but from many decades it persists. No matter how much we are educated or aware but still 95 percent of population are having soft corner for the person who is from their cast or region. Britisher's had ruled us by the divide and rule policy. And history is repeating itself. The politicians are tactfully dividing us for their own benefits.
We need to understand that we are Indian first. And we should not support any individual who is dividing and favouring the division.
I don't think that the existing states should be divided to maintain the law n order. Every state is well equipped and having lot of fund to tackle any situation. Politicians are in favour of making new seats as they want to be the ministers and can fill there pockets and account with lot of money. |

| The rise of regional blocks representing particulars areas give rise to narrow thinking confined to their regions or development. Names of regional blocks indicating the linguistic division of the people are not only harmful to the region but also integrity of the country. Election Commission is approving the names of dividing the country into small units for example Telugu Desam (Telugu country). It is not understandable how that name has got clearance from Election Commission. In Tamil Nadu also there are many parties representing regional blocks. So unity and integrity of the country is at stake like how water war are being fought by States expressing selfish interests bypassing other states interests. Political parties are gaining selfish interests exploiting regional disparities. The Central Govt should take some subjects as union matter like Electricity and Irrigation. These matters of Electricity and Irrigation must be used for the whole parts of India such as where irrigation and electricity is deficient from the surplus states. Election Commission should ban regional parties. Instead national parties should be encouraged. The nomenclature of parties are such that indicate the division of the country into pieces. Unified Laws will be implemented throughout the country. |
