South and the North
by Raaj on Nov 13, 2006 01:23 PM

Rajeev's message is being over scrutinized and wrongly interpreted. He has written what he believes and knows. He never mentions that South is better than North or there was any word on Dravidian and Aryan. Most people of India are chauvinistic about their mother language. But does that stop us from being an Indian??? Sacrifices are made everywhere and everytime and by everyone as INDIAN and not on the basis of region or religion. We should be proud to count the contributions of Muslims (like Abdul Kalam), Sikhs (Bhagat Singh), Christians, Hindus and many more. Just because Rajeev wrote 4 paragraphs on Kerala 3 on Tamil, 1 on Karnataka and 2 on Andhra Pradesh doesn't mean that, that state with less paragraph description lacks something. The article to me reminds that before 1990s, states in the south weren't as good/ developed in some areas like infrastructure and facility as some states in the north. Now, it is growing good and the writer (Rajeev) relates the past and the present. To argue or linger on this subject with negative thought is nothing short of being foolish.
