Most of us are born racist then why blame Australia!! The difference probably lies that they express their feelings through actions and we do so verbally because we are a bunch of cowards. Otherwise what’s the difference? Some people claim Mumbai belong to a certain group of people or that Telangana must be a separate state. We have more state than most countries and even if that’s not worse we have a difference of culture, language and to add to that people have become intolerant towards anyone who is not a son of soil.
If India had been a successful kingdom as history suggests, the reason was tolerance towards other people having different culture, language and way of living. After independence we were too busy trying to be a ‘developed nation’ from a ‘developing nation’ and now that we are developing so we have leisure to indulge in activities which leads to a divided nation. I guess the motto of a certain class of people is to make ‘India’ into ‘United States of India’ where in we will need visa to travel to one state to another. Probably Mumbai would also have a visa cap every year for migrants.
We still refer to people based on their region or religion or class or creed …this list will go on..So aren’t we racist?? Introspection will reveal the answer which we can’t deny. Unless we value and respect human life we can never call ourselves developed species, be it Australian’s or Indian’s. Hatred is a strong feeling which can destroy humanity are we are not too far from that…!
