The diversity in India is unique. Being a large country with large population, India presents endless varieties of physical features and cultural patterns. In short, India is “the epitome of the world.” The vast population is composed of people having diverse creeds, customs and colors. Economic development, level of education and political culture of the people in various social segments differ from region to region.
Notwithstanding the various diversities evinced in India, there are the bonds of unity which are located in a certain underlying uniformity of life as well as in certain mechanisms of integration. Unity amidst diversity is visualized in the geo-political sphere; tradition of accommodation, emotional bond etc. India’s political unity is an offshoot of the religious and cultural unity. The First bond of unity of India is found in its geo-political integration. Politically, India is now a sovereign State. Every part of it is governed by the same Constitution and same Parliament. We share the same political culture marked by the norms of democracy, secularism and socialism.
Quite in line with the traditional bonds of unity, the Indian State in post-Independence era has rightly opted for a composite culture model of national unity rather than a uniform culture model. The composite culture model provides for the preservation and plurality of cultures within the frame work of an integrated nation. Hence, the significance of our choice of the norm of secularism, implying equal regard for all religions, as our policy of national integration.
The account of the unity of India should not be taken to mean that we have always had a smooth sailing in matters of national unity, with no incidents of caste, communal or religious riots. Nor should it be taken to mean that the divisive and secessionist tendencies have been altogether absent.
