NATIONAL INTEGRATION DAY
Introduction:
India is a land of various races; various religious and various languages. Still then, the Indians developed into one nation by the influence of common territory, common history and common fight for freedom against the foreign rule.
But when India came under the British, the English ruler followed the policy of Divide and Rule in order to perpetuate their authority over India. Consequently the racial, the religious and the linguistic groups in the Indian nation first began to disintegrate emotionally and psychologically and then desired to disintegrate territorially. This resulted into division of India into Bharat and Pakistan. India the integrity of the Indian nation is awfully threatened as the communal quarrels are fanned by the hostile neighbours of India. Hence, the necessity of strong national Integration in India has become so urgent at present.
What should be done:
There are, in India, various religious communities, such as Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists, Jains and Parses. Each community should appreciate every other community. Each community should love every other community, respect the prophets of every other community. Each community should observe the great days of every other community. Each community should help and share the religious festivals of every other community. A religious community should avoid doing any such thing which is a taboo for any other religious community.
There are in India, various linguistic groups speaking different languages, such as Hindi, Urdu, Bangali, Oriya, Assamee, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi and so on. Each linguistic group should respect the language of every other linguistic group. Every Indian student should be given full facility to learn through his own language wherever he is in India.
Conclusion:
National integration in India is a crying need of the day. The Government of our country has founded the Council of National Integration. It is hoped that the people of India will

    One inevitable impact the division had on the people was perhaps one of the greatest refugee crises and migration in history. Over 10 million people moved between India and Pakistan. For the most part, the Hindus generally moved into the Indian subcontinent while the Muslims, who feared Hindu domination, migrated to East and West Pakistan. In Document 8 it shows that there were around 8.6 million Muslim refugees that migrated out of India into either East or West Pakistan. In addition to this extraordinary refugee crises, another effect the division of India had was border tensions. The tensions between the borders of India and Pakistan resulted in India being at the “receiving end of Pakistan’s heavy shelling” and “heavy bombing” (Document 9b). This shows that not only was there a large scale migration crises, there was also several attacks and possibly deaths and casualties from bombs. Also, in document 9a it that states that another effect of the division was that there were “two armed conflicts (in 1965 and 1999) and numerous clashes between Indian and Pakistani forces”. This highlights the various facets of the tensions and problems the division of India had on the Hindus and Muslims. It is inevitable that the division of the region greatly affected the people who lived there by causing the largest migration in human history, armed conflicts, and…

    India has a history of being a fractured nation, at times this disunity was even able to save them from being taken over by conquerors like Alexander the Great. However, their luck was doomed to run out. India has always been a country rich in resources, making it natural prey to the British imperialists who not only wished to exploit these resources but the people of India as well. With a viewpoint such as this, it’s simple to see why Indian's view of British Imperialists evolved into yet another divided nation, with some coming to accept and see the benefits of Britain's political control, while others couldn’t come to terms with how easily the British system disregarded them and how altered it was from the once great Mughal Empire. Despite…

    India is in the centre of a very serious conflict in the world today. It is a very diverse place composed of people from many different religious backgrounds that come from many different regions. Two of the country’s main religions, Muslim and Hindu, have been fighting for hundreds of years for many different reasons. Their feelings of hatred and mistrust for each other are embedded in their memories and will not be forgotten easily. The worst part is there seems to be no initial plan for compromise between the two groups. Though there are many reasons for this conflict, only a few will be touched on. Those that will be touched on are the Islamic attacks on Indian Parliament, the anti-Muslim textbooks, and the Deganga Riots. These are all recent examples of the feud between these two religions and how they are not letting the past go. The Muslim-Hindu relationship is declining and there is no sign of letting up in the near future.…

    The Indians should be taught in their own language rather in an English language class because it's their own heritage and culture of their country. Also it's also unfair if they're being taught by the British because all people are different. If this happens, India wouldn't exist at the time and British would most likely to colonize the Asian…

    If countries can be defined by their socio-cultural make-up alone it would be a difficult task to define India and its subsequent ‘Indianness’. Given its multi-cultural set-ups, where each culture and its sub-culture is a separate world of its own, it is not only presumptuous but narrow-minded to define national identity in such a manner. It cannot be based on class distinctions either. If on one hand we have the destitute scavenging for food in dust-bins, the…

    However, Hindutva ideology should not be the only cause of the rise of communalism in India since Muslims and Hindus had lived together for over than centuries. Colonialism took part on creating tensions between Muslim and Hindus. In addition, political clash had raised the tensions between them. In this research paper, I will prove that the rise of communalism in India was not just because of the Hindutva ideology and the Hindutva movement but also because of the British involvement and intervention in Indian society. Furthermore, the Muslims also raised the tension by making themselves apart from the Hindus and created conflicts against the Hindus.…

    It has been experienced that every step of movement towards economic, political and cultural modernization, taken by the state in India, is responded to by the people with an enhanced sense of self-consciousness and awareness of identity. Cultural modernization, sponsored by the forces of globalization, is resented if it encroaches upon or does not promote the core cultural values of society, its language, social practices and styles of life. The vigour of the renewed sense of self-awareness generated among the members of the local cultures and communities is such as to succeed in making adaptive reconciliation with the forces of globalization. The linkages both visible and invisible, defining the cultural interdependence among communities and regions in India which have existed historically, reinforce instead of threatening the national identity. These bonds seem to become stronger as India encounters the forces of modernization and globalization. Key Words: Globalization, Culture, Modernization, etc.…

    Communal problems in India have reached an endemic proportion. Each and every part of India is being affected by this problem. More and more people are becoming conscious about their own community. ‘National Integration’ is therefore a priority agenda for Indian politics as well as for voluntary and social organizations. Communal movements are driving their agenda in very systematic and sustainable way. Consequently, some or other parts of India have to face the communal flare up or situation of communal strife everyday. It disturbs the society at large. Today communalism is a serious threat to the nation and is the most challenging task in front of secular movements in India.…
