National Integration:..........

I have been writing on this the past 30 years.

I mentioned the same in my blog of Oct' 2011, which I now copy below:

 Another of my favourite theme is National Integration in its truest sense. We all know that inspite of 45 years of independence we cannot think of ourselves as one Nation. One good way of integrating the population and causing cross-cultural relationship is by promulgating a law that requires 60% of all central government positions to be recruited from outside the state. These are to be represented in a fair proportion giving weightage to merit where needed. This representation is to be executed at every centre of Central government employment individually & not arrive at a collective figure for a state. This one act will cause a cross-cultural flow and appreciation, relegating divisive forces to the background.

Also since we are unable to abrogate Article 370, the next best alternative is to get all educated Kashmiri youth employed in various sectors of the country. Once they begin to integrate with the rest of the country then this animosity and all related problems will vanish. Another point, which is the cause of present dis-integration of society, is the caste factor. Is it not possible to design forms that do not carry one's caste or sub-caste. Suffice that for statistical purposes creed will serve. And nowhere during the entire lifetime of an individual should he be asked for these divisive data.
