Watch us Indians fight each other

[pmukherjee]

hmm strictly speaking on the basis of ethnicity the subcontinent would have following major areas.

Afghanistan and NWFP(Historically linked to more of central asia than subcontinent)
Balochistan and Iran(Historically linked to more of Iran than subcontinent)
North and Central part Pakistani Punjab with Indian Punjab,himachil,kashmir and haryana
Southern Pakistani Punjab with Rajishstan
Sindh With Gujrat
Far East of subcontinent including West and East bengal, Assaam and periphal states.
Then the remaining central indian states
Lastly the southern Indian states.

Feel Free to modify the list.

Not far from correct, the genetic and DNA makeup of these regions give a more accurate picture though. However, thousands of years of mixing of blood has blurred the differences except in the extremes. For example, an Afghan or a Baluch will not stand out in Delhi but will to do so in Chennai. Similarly, a Naga or a Mizo may not stand out in Kolkata but will stand out in Delhi.

There are a lot of south indians who migrate to other parts of india including mumbai and delhi as well . do remember . Emergence of thackerays in the south will be bad for the southies living here in the north . Our societies are too integrated now for anyone to be able to afford such a conflict or as you said 'more thackerays' .

I never considered Mumbai to be North India, I always thought it was in Maharashtra, may be it is the fault of my Geography teacher. Indian society is not as integrated as you may feel watching cable television. My point is every state will have its regionalist hooligan.

Sambar is a tad too sour for my liking. But yes Masal Dosa ftw too.

Mumbai is certainly not north india , i agree but my point was that south indians too migrate to different parts of the country so they should think about that before they start cheering on some raj thackeray equivalent in the south .

Indian societies are integrated for normal , educated human being who do not have mental and emotional issues . There are more than enough people from north working in the south and people from the south working in the north today . Even in the student community travveling from south to north and north to south is not unusual . So yeah indian society is integrated for educated , hardworking , normal people with normal lives who have no mental and emotional issues.This section will only grow in india as the economy progresses.

Almost correct but I want clarify some,

1) Eastern Afghanistan + NWFP
2) Balochistan
3) Punjab + Haryana + Delhi + Western UP
4) Kashmir + Himachal
5) Gujarat + Sindh
6) Madhya pradesh + Chattishgarh + Jharkhand
7) Maharashtra + North Karnataka
8) Kerala
9) Tamil Nadu + Andhra Pradesh + Sri Lanka + South Karnataka
10) Eastern UP + Bihar + West Bengal + Odisha
11) East Bengal + Tripura
12) North east India

So its all mixed up.

I disagree. All India has is Islands of Cosmopolitanism. Beyond Mumbai and B'lore the rest do not handle that all too well. So forgive me for being practical. In terms of percentages the south indians in north is minuscule, emotionally sound or otherwise.

We are all same race but different ethnicity.

Percenages don't matter , what matters is that there are a lot of south indians in the north , atleast hundreds of thousands if not millions and they will be put in harm's way if ever Northies are harmed in the South .

About islands of cosmopolitanism , yes you are right but these educated people are the ones driving the economy and the country in general today . As long as the indian middle educated class is strong and is expanding people who wish for disintegration of india will continue losing as they have for the last 64 years and it is only getting worse for them with more people getting an education and employment in this growing economy . Best of luck

Guwahati is another city which is hugely cosmopolitan. Chennai and Delhi are the worst in this case!
