how the formation of linguistic states helped in strengthening the foundation of democracy and the process of national integration in India?
Answers
Answer:The formation of linguistic states helped in strengthening the foundation of democracy and the process of national integration in India. One of the most important concerns in the early years was that of unity of the country. It was felt that linguistic states may foster separatism and create pressure on the newly founded nation.
(a). The formation of these states changed the nature of democratic politics and leadership in same basic ways. The path to politics and power was now open to people other than the small English speaking elite.
(b). Linguistic reorganization also gave some uniform basis to the drawing of state boundaries. It did not lead to disintegration of the country as many had feared earlier. On the contrary, it strengthened national unity.
Answer:
India was fragmented into more than 500 princely territories and the provinces of British India at the time of independence. After accession into the Union, there came the sticky issue of integrating the kingdoms and provinces into feasible administrative units.
First the Dhar commission, and then the JVP commission rejected the reorganization of states on linguistic basis despite clamour for the same. Fazl Ali commission or States Reorganization Commission, in 1953, allowed that in principle, while giving primacy to administrative convenience.
