gujjar .. r u also among them who fought to achieve "lower class" status .. what a losers r u guys .. shame on u ..
rediff should look into what they are posting on net. such naive captions are not appropriate and shows the level of ingnorance of author and rediff. sikkim is a beautiful place and people are harmonius. better change the caption. rediff managers should wake up now

I am totally agree with Mr. Himanshu as such a title shows a stepchild behaviour towords sikkim which is not at all acceptable since it is very much integral part of India.

both of you didnt understand what writer was trying to say so both of you go n scrw urself
recently i visited a zoo with few school children and i was shocked to see the board which mentioned that this bird (inside the cage)is found in INDIA, SIKKIM, BANGLADESH....

On May 16, 1975, 97.5% people of Sikkim preferred to join Indian union through a referendum. I guess the board was written before 1975! Good observation though! Did you bring this issue to the notice of the zoo authorities?
If there is one state which after its inclusion in India has been peacefull is Sikkim, why on earth did this author thought of writting this article...
I bet if u ask Tamils they will say i am Tamil but my desh is Indian, if u ask Marathi, same, if u ask Bengali same, if u ask kashimiri may be u will get a different answer but than remember India has a Army Regiment from Kashmir, majority of the Police force fighting in Kashmir against the millitants are Kashmiris, infact the 1947 war in which India defeated Pakistanis, was soley due to support given by Kashmiri's from BARAMULLA region !!!

May be it is in response of today's news which I read in Navbharat. Which stats that "China's lower garde official says that they will not allow India to make Nepal as they have made Sikkim" for detail please go through newspaper.

Mr.Kumar The Army Regiment is not from kashmir but J & K, and it is known fact to all that the Kashmir is Disputed Area, so how come that any Kashmiri will call himself an Indian as kashmiris have different Culture, tradation and feelings as compared to the rest of india.and no indian is ready to trust any kashmiri, how is it possible that kashmiris can be called as indians.

Lala, have you seen Kashmiri culture? The culture of Hindus in Kashmir as similar to other hindus of world. When a Kashmiri Muslim looking for a job in other part of India he calls hiself Indian, but same person when sitting in Kashmir will call him only Kashmiri & not Indian. What a petty.

Amit, 1st mistake in 1947, Govt. didn't captured whole of the Kashmir. 2nd in 1965, 3rd in 1972 and than Kargil. I agree that Govt. made mistake, and didn't distroyed pakistan and took full control of Kashmir. Than this problem would have over. But, Govt. wanted these people to feel free & safe, lots of grants were given to them. They used the grants fully till 1988-89 and lived happly, but after that, enjoying the grants and stabing on the back.

you just an idiot culture feeling n all that don't need to be same. I live in UK and live as per their ;ife style but i still call myself an Indian and I'm pround to be an Indian. u dumbo probably would think I shouldn't.
I find nothing wrong in the caption. Its a true reflection of every citizen in the Eastern corner of India. People are just hurt by the caption, imagine the life of all those people who are living in those eastern and the most beautiful places of India, but still treated and second hand states of India. Which of Indian Govt. have ever given importance to these states. Which of the industrialist and the so called progressive people have ever thought of these place. Have they ever been represented truly and given place in mainstream politics, glamour. Its no use just trying to write everywhere that we are Indian. Every citizen should feel it.

Totally agreed with you SIR. One also feel that people of eastern states are not getting mixed up easily with other Indians, Like in Delhi. But when we go to these states these peoples are very friendly to us. There is some problem with Norther Indian or else.

What's wrong? The title tells you how a Sikkimese person feels proud of his country when he says my desh is India.
Don't we hear words like Punjabi, Bihari, Bengali, Malayali, Maharashtrian, Kannadiga, Kashmiri, etc? This is basic identification of your region or state. The BEST part is saying I am an Indian.
The message coming from this 16 year old boy is more patriotic than what we webloggers are saying.
There is nothing wrong or mischievous about it. Please read it objectively.

Just try to understand it in a context that China is claming Sikkim and now Nepal is also down under commis.
Strong actions should be taken against the writer of the post and the rediff for posting such an anti-India column. Title is derrogatory for nation lovers. This post misleads the young minds and conveys a very dubious and wrong idea and raises questions whether sikkim is part of India. This post seems to be funded by either china or pakistan. Manoj

when we say we are bihari, we dont extend the word by saying that we are indian also.If we say that I am bihari or panjabi but my contry India. It will make entirely different meaning. if auther would have not have used the term 'but' it would have been acceptable
How corny and misleading can Rediff get. We all know that being Sikkimese and being India is not mutually exclucsive, unless Rediff would like us to beleive otherwise. I think Rediff should immediately apologise or be sued by the GoI.
