Rajeev:: First of all it seems you are not only less "educated", but also arrogant which is out of ignorance. You need to read India's history well, have tolerance for all parts/cultures of India and really feel yourself proud being an Indian. Political writings (your title is apt : Shadow Warrior) like these does not go a long way.
Above all, I would ask the Rediff guys to stop publishing these articles which is full of vandalism and hollow material. Its a sheer shame that you are operated and allowed to write these, just because your country allows you do so.
This is being Indian. Most of the South Indians (And I really feel bad for them as this is due to political propaganda) you meet outside, be it Wasignton/Tokyo (whenever I meet them during travel), will burst in his language and the identity is always local. It is so shameful. But you meet anybody else, they will tell they from India first, not XXX state. Also, I can talk with a Pakistani in a language which both (and its an enemy for 50 years), but NOT with these folks. This led to a British invasion for 200 yrs (divide and rule).
Just stop writing such non-sensical articles. May GOD give you some sense.
