BHARAT VS INDIA A DIVIDED NATION

The title of the essay,” Bharat vs India a divided nation” has become quite evident as the problems we are facing are pushing us into a dark tunnel of a divided nation with a small lamp at the end of this throwing eternal light of hope, mutual trust and sense of confidence. The display of unity and solidarity during the great struggle of freedom from the yoke of British imperialism that we had before independence all appears to be fading away in this modern dynamics of globalization and the presence of occidentalism. But delving deep into this burning topic, Bharat vs India, is all about the different reasons which sound alarm to us as one nation. It may be Hindu vs Muslim, Urban vs Rural, or Hindi vs English as a national language.

In India there are people with two sets of ideologies, one which supports the concept of modern India and others which wants rural India to be developed. One supports the spending of 200 crores on a Bollywood movie, robust it's space agency while the other half wanting to take care of the basic needs of farmers so that they can grow and be a part of the economy, alleviating their suicide rate and providing fresh drinking water. Another major reason that makes us look divided is the riots between Hindu and Muslim, in the past 70 years, our government has always put this issue on the back burner and has done practically nothing to resolve this problem.

The issue of whether Hindi should be made a national language or not has made this cleavage even more wider. In my opinion we need to understand that India is a diverse nation, its taste of water changes after every 3 km and its language in 7 km. By making a particular language its national language, it will give advantage to some Sharma who is born with this as a mother tongue while causing disadvantage to one say Subramanian as it is completely different from its mother tongue.

Jawaharlal Nehru once said: ”Who lives if India dies, and who dies if India lives?”. We need to understand Bharat and India is distinct but interconnected, there cannot be an ideal India or Bharat. The beauty of our nation is the diversity that we inherited. We need to accept the flaws, celebrate our similarities and respect our differences. We need to build India with its Bharat as a major contributor. India is our dream and Bharat is our ideology.

One Nation One Election

Elections are the most important part of any democratic country. Different countries have different methods to elect their representatives to form the government. Unlike the US where Presidential elections are conducted, India has national elections for the formation of a new Parliament (to elect new members of Parliament) to form a new govt at the center headed by the PM with his council of ministers. Similarly, election for formation of new State Legislative Assembly( by electing new members of legislative assembly)to form new govt headed by CM with his council of ministers. But, curiously enough, the above two sets of elections are seldom conducted simultaneously with the result our country happens to witness mini elections round the year causing immense financial strain on exchequer besides causing unwanted and avoidable shifting of manpower from productive deployment to manage these mini elections. So, with the changing demography the countries have their own modus operandi...
