Does anyone know which issues force the creation of a new state? What is to be gained from getting a new state?
If the only reason to get a new state is to appease to the false pride of a few Indians, or simply because a minority wants a new state, then the creation of these states is wrong. If there are infrastructure and economical gains which could be had from creating a new state, only then does it make sense.
If we allow India to be carved into little states based on ethnicity, states will start becoming openly segregated. Some might even try to seceed (declare their state as an independent nation not a part of India). Presence or abscence of minorities should never be the only driving force behind the creation of new states.
