Question

Types of social tension emerging in modern india

Answer 1

In any developing country of continental dimensions like India, where scores of languages are spoken and where every religion and ethnic diversity abounds, it is natural to come across different kinds of tensions- social, economic, political, religious, or ethnic. The Concise Oxford English Dictionary defines "tension" as he "act of stretching or the state of being stretched." It also means "mental strain, stress, or excitement." To this list, the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary of Current English adds another menang:"a situation in which people feel aggressive or unfriendly towards each other, and which may develop into conflict or violence." Tension is also understood as the opposite of the state of "relaxation," on the hand, and of "amity, congeniality," on the other. Further, tension is a variable because it increases or decreases, thereby having different values because it increases or decreases, thereby having different values on a continuum at different points of time. Sometimes it may be less, sometimes it may be more, and much depends upon the causes the produce it and for how long.

Tension can erupt due to economic deprivation or thereat of economic deprivation, due to denial of rights to one class, or favour to another. it could be over the "reservation" issues. Economic deprivation is factor potent enough to cause violence by the affected group or class.

Occupational competition between different groups of people, involving territorial encroachment on one side and territorial denudation on the other is another breeding ground for tension and conflict.

Feeling of identity aggression by one community against others is an area where tension is aggravated through inflation of ego; and further through caste, sect or religion, dialect, and language. It inflates through location, region, and state. And when two or three components combine leading to a larger identity group, the feeling is extremely aggressive and inordinately volatile resulting in a feeling of harassment, insecurity, and unrest among other smaller groups.
