Was reading a lot of stuff about india lately.
Idea of india and india at crossroads , history of india , reinventing india etc.
All the books, articles are unanimous in one thing and that is that there is no one sentence , idea, religion, leader, sentiment that joins us.
It's probably all of them that bind us together. What exactly then holds us together then?
I believe our miseries individual and communal, makes us feel the equal, kind of a hostage situation, as long as all are hostages they are all the same only that miseries are endless.
So where does hope go? Can hope keep people together?
Well answer is also yes, repeated electoral victories in UP has uplifted dalits from poverty in UP and in many parameters they are doing well now then they ever did (read swaminomics for details). And the hope that if they vote together their leaders will deliver has indeed delivered bumper benefits for them.
But are we united because of our miseries or are we because of hope or are we not united at all?
What do you think ?
