57 years after Mother India was divided into two parts, what do we feel about it? There is a definite tinge of regret that a once-mighty nation was carved into two and will never probably become one again. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
The problem is further fragmentation of India is already underway and part of it may be irreversible.
1)Kashmir is largely gone from my view point (To me my Hindu identity is primary and Indian identity is a secondary derivative of that). Kashmir was once a Hindu stronghold which had defeated Mahmud Ghaznavi and produced master pieces that were accepted as being of pan-Hindu value by the Indian elite. Now that it has been Islamized I do not see any way of reversing it. On top of this the Moslem conquerors of Kashmir have successfully sold the case to the world that they are the owners of the land and all its culture is Islamic.
2)The North-East is fatally infected by Christians and unlikely to be easy to revert- now the poison has reached Assam, which like Kashmir had been firmly within Hindu territory.
3) Bihar, parts of Madhya Pradesh and their descendent states are all in a state of profound misrule making them impossible to revert in the current administrative and legal frame work.
4) Nepal- a Hindu kingdom is losing its Hinduhood rapidly and degenerating into the red fringe.
5) Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia- the modern Indian influence is fast dwindling in these nations that once looked upto India.
So on the whole the Hindus are on down-turn.
This is one way of looking at things.
The optimist would remark that until 100 years ago the Nizam still rule Hyderabad and Moslem bands terrorized several parts of India, but now these places have reverted to Hindu rule. However, I tend to take the pessimistic view for Hindus have simply failed to organized.
Secularism- the ideal of separate church and state is not for Hindus, but was foisted on them by the subversion of their elite during the freedom movement by the British. I see secularism as a foreign rule by proxy and needs to be overthrown by a Hindu national movement just as the other foreign rules were fought by the Hindus.
This will at least save the core of Hindustan, the fringes that are going away will be even harder.
