In past the Mongolians, Moughals, British, and many more divided us, ruled us. Now and then here and there few politicians through some arguments and fuel communal violence among us for short term gain. Rather than feel as a great Indian for a short period we feel ourselves great Hindus, Muslims, or Christians, argue and fight among each other. After freedom when India was subdivided to various regions and all these states were established on the basis of language and as per rule of British presidency it was purely for administrative purpose and to reach the common man with basic amenities. Now when we are looking forward to become a developed country by 2020 it is our foolishness to have these differences for the right on natural resources. We should understand that nature and natural resources are one for all irrespective of religion, colour, nationality and state. We should understand the gravity of this issue and should not argue on this. If a Tamil farmer is getting short of water for his crop or daily requirement we should have the same feeling and pain as when it happens to Karnataki farmer. Now no one even thinks off what our earlier priminister Mr. Atal Bihari Bajpayee has said during his tenure to link our river system. If linking our river system would have started 17 years before when exactly this Cauvery tribunal has filed probably we would have in a better position, and satisfaction for all.

It's not about being a great Hindu more than it is about uniting India. It is the only ideology left. Hindutva. Don't try to be smart by acting secular. They don't practice secularism this way in West from where the word was borrowed where it means separation of church and state, not appeasment for minority religions constantly to break the fabric of the socities. Those nations are christian to the core. Hindus are secular by practice and it's essential to protect this way by making these values mandatory for everyone. All the Islamic states treat minorities in terrible way. Look at Pak and Bangladesh. They killed tens of millions of hindus in 60years from 1847. Most of the minorities are persecuted. In India temple funds are diverted by governments to build madrassas and proselytising christian missionaries which are attacking the fabric of the society. In your ignorance of linguistic chauvinism or other regional pride you miss the larger picture. wake up before you break your head when you the sad state of shattered India in future.
