A little snippet from History. The col referred to the 3rd battle of panipat between Afghans and Marathas.
In the battle , the Afghans were led by Ahmad Shah Abdali. When planning his attack on India, he was very worried about the might of the combined Armies of Indian Princely states led by the formidable Marathas. He decided to spy on the combined army to asceratin its strength and weakness.
It is said that Abdali himself came down under cover to spy. To his amazement he saw that the army had organized its camps in different clusters and each had their own kitchens. When he enquired he got to know that each cluster represented a different caste and the army strictly followed the caste system even in the face of a war.
Abdali was convinced that the army which looked so formidable from far was actually a divided lot and it would never be able to put a united fight. He went on to smash the Combined Indian Army led by Marathas and won the battle of Panipat.
Our problems are common. The problems of Budelkhand in UP, Vidharbha in Maharasthra, Telengana in South is common. In each of these areas farmers in thousands are commiting suicides. Mumbai/Delhi/Bangalore has developed because of its cosmopoitan populace. Bihar and UP and a large part of India is backward because people are still divided and follow the caste system.Lets not fight. We dont need to look far for inspiration. The Indian cricket team is the best example of Team spirit.
