Power Sharing in Indian Democracy
“If we were to look over the whole world to fine out the country most richly endowed with all the wealth, power and beauty that nature can bestow-in some parts a very paradise on earth-I should point to India”. ~ Max Mueller
What Max Mueller said is indeed true. Crowned by the Himalayas on top and vast seas surrounding its peninsula, India is quite distinct on the world map.
The Himalayas enveloped all the beauty with in itself, giving rise to the mighty rivers-Indus, Ganga and Yamuna and their tributaries, spreading over the land like arteries, providing life blood to the species while in the Deccan plateau and South, the Narmada, Krishna, Godavari Cauvery, sucked water from the vast seas and drenched the entire land. With so much vivacity all around, life bloomed and soon the entire subcontinent was filled with rare, fragrant flowers and beautiful creatures started making it their home.
Could man be far behind? India has seen many eras blooming on her soil. Each era has left its indelible lifestyle, thinking’s, languages, tastes and the whole culture was different. From Harappa’s to Maury as, Guptas to Sultans, and Mughals to the English, India saw a metamorphosis in each era. People mixed, cultures intermingled, and each century brought a new India, influenced by all, yet retaining its old identity. So, the whole of India, was dotted it temples, mosques and churches, palaces, havelis and forts.
The biggest asset of India as a desirable tourist destination is its 5,000-year-old historical and cultural heritage. Every region in India developed a culture of its own. The culture is a wide term, which includes the languages, rituals, beliefs, festivals and tradition, given form father to son and carried on with generations.
The regional diversity is attributed to the fact that the historical roots of development of each region culturally depended much on the dynasties ruling it and also on their proximity to other cultures. This limited regional influence was

    It seems more apt to call India a subcontinent rather than a country. Enough and more has been written and said about how it is a melting pot of various and diverse cultures and how some states rival some countries at least in terms of geographical area. India has been a miracle to the extent that we have managed to unite so many races together under a common flag and hold together for sixty long turbulent years. This has not been an easy journey and secessionist tendencies have reared its ugly head at several points of time prominent examples being Khalistan and, as rumours have it, a demand for a separate Tamil nation.…

    India must ideally be a superpower. I would love India to be the best country in the world and that too if we achieve it while I am living, then I would be extremely, extraordinarily happy. India has many resources to be tapped. If we do that optimally, then the time is not far away when we would be the country to be admired. I see a rapidly developing country with a healthy working force. I see a country which is one of the most beautifully endorsed with the jewels of nature- the forests, mountains, animals, rivers, and what not. I see a country that has a transformed youth with a transformed vision towards life. I quote what sir F. Max Müller has said, “ If I were to look over the whole world to find out the country most richly endowed with all the wealth, power and beauty nature can bestow- in some…
