issues of minority and politics in india
Answers
India is a rainbow nation. The convergence of diversities is the very essence of this kaleidoscopic nation with continental dimensions. India is microcosm of the world. The Brokpa tribe, inhabited in the northernmost territory of India, Ladakh, is considered to be the decedents of Alexander the Great and as such pure Aryans. Whereas the Jarawa tribe inhabited in the southernmost territory of India, Andaman Islands, is Negroid. Thus India has Europe and Africa within it.
This socio-cultural diversity resulted in a fabulous cultural osmosis and the crystallisation of a composite culture. Take the example of a musical instrument, Rudra Veena. As Rudra is a name for the Hindu god Shiva, Rudra Veena literally means "the veena dear to Shiva". Shiva is also said to have created the Rudra Veena, inspired by his wife, Parvati. In the 20th century, it was Zia Mohiuddin Dagar, a Muslim musician, who modified and redesigned the Rudra Veena. Besides Dagar, all the major exponents of this instrument were Musilms – Asad Ali Khan, Bande Ali Khan, Bahauddin Dagar, Naubat Khan, Wazir Khan and Ali Zaki Haider. This is only one of the umpteen examples of India’s cultural syncretism.
