Thaali, not Melting Pot
by Girish on Feb 16, 2008 02:17 AM

Please try to analyze from their angle too. Indian culture can survive only when each state is able to retain its unique culture. We should seek to preserve diversity, not destroy. As Shashi Tharoor says, India is like a THAALI, not a MELTING POT. The RSS should not shut its eyes to a real issue that exists in every state. Their strong arm tactics apart, the MNS thinking pervades all over India and even outside. By criticizng it, we are refusing to look deeper into what constitutes India.
