We may quote here Vishnupurana defining India as “the country which lies to the north of the ocean and south of the snow covered mountains is called Bharatvarsa”. India stands apart from the rest of Asia marked off as it is, by mountains and the sea, giving it a distinct geographical entity. Eg. Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and India form the most natural geographical unit-referred to as the Indian subcontinent. In north, northeast and northwest there are young fold mountains, plateau in south, three seas (Indian sea, Arabian sea, Bay of Bengal sea), deserts and plains, islands etc. all exist. Weather and climate here also are diverse. There are several types of natural vegetation and species of wildlife, who flourish here. It appears aloof but more prosperous with natural resources than any other country of the world.
In the context of diversity of India, particularly in term of distinct physical features, one can see its parallelism to human beings who live here. Needless to state that numerous castes, creeds, races, religions, customs, rituals etc. live here in peaceful co-existence. Internal clashes, feuds take place here from time to time but all of them unite into one for her defence from infiltrators, militants, terrorists, invaders from outside India. Eg. India- China War, 1962, India-Pakistan War of 1965,1971,1999 (Kargil), are evidences of that unity and integrity among Indian people. People of different beliefs are sewn here with the single thread of patriotism and spirit of extreme nationality.

Thus, we can state that diverse physiographic divisions constitute India the same way as people of diverse beliefs live and defend it with a spirit of oneness and integrity.
