innings started

i have been fascinated  a great deal by the entire concept of blogging but was rather lazy to start one on my own till now.the asian college of journalism,where i am curently pursuing a diploma in journalism has over the pat 6 months given me a new perspective in understanding diffrent people and cultures across this vast country .being brought up all my life in new delhi,i had little or no understanding about the massive diversity that this beautiful yet intensly complex country offers.i have learnt that most of the probelms india faces on its path to being an econmic superpower rests on its social fabric.the division of states on lingustic lines has resulted in a ghettoisation of diffrent lingustic commnuites in diffrent regions,which in turn has resulted in the feeling of some kind of lingustic superiority ,exemplified in the entire issue about the impostion of hindi.it resul;ted in huge protests from across the country especially the non hindi speaking south.If india indeed needs to shine some time,it is imperative that these diffrences are forgotton and people identify themselves as indians rather than punjabis ,tamilians and so on.until then these small squabbles and unneeded chauvanism by freaks will not take us anywhere.
