But isnt India like that. All the other entities are person based cults. One finds no problems with their corruption!
India is divided into groups. It was only under great statesman kings it was united and immediatly it fell apart.
In modern times MKG was able to weld the disparate groups with the idea of freedom. This glue worked for only two elections (1952 thru 1960) after that and immediately groupism took over.
In India to win you have to divde and to rule you have to unite.
Thats the dichotomy.
Having said that extraordinary times bring about group unity like nothing else does. in 1977 the country rose as one to throw out the Emergency rule of Mrs G. But the elected politicans fought like kilkenny cats and nothing was left and the people voted back Mrs G.
