nehru had done many mischiefs for India - permit license raj condemning millions to poverty, anti democratic dynastic politics, neglect of defence resulting in loss of territory to pakistan in 1947 and to china in 1962.
What takes the cake among his blunders was the linguistic politics played by nehru.
Tamils, Telugus, Kannadiga, Malayalis, Tuluvas, Kodavas in Madras Presidency AND
Marathis, Gujarathis, Kannadigas, Konkanis, in Bombay Presidency
never ever quarreled on the language lines. Usually people in the border areas were bilingual/trilingual and very proud of their knowing more languages.
Sardar Patel when he was alive by setting up Kar Committee which had ruled out linguistic states as harmful for national integrity.
After Sardar passed away, Nehru foolishly set up linguistic states firstly to spite C Rajagopalachari Iyengar in Madras Presidency and subsequently to spite Yashwantrao Chavan and Morarji Bhai. The old british strategy of DIVIDE AND RULE applied by our own brown sahib nehru.
The current sins committed by Kannadaa Virodhi Vedike and Maharashtra Disaster Sena can be directly attributed to nehru and this linguistic vivisection of India.
Solution: Break apart all states into smaller entities. Nationalise the rivers and create a national water grid. That is the only way to fix this bug. Declare cities like Chennai, bangalore, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Kolkata Union Territories.
linguistic fascists will protest...Damn the protestors
