The Indian Sub-Continent Merger- Part Six, Part Seven, and Part Eight

The Indian Sub-Continent Merger- Part Six

Bangladesh needs to merge with West Bengal to form a secular autonomous republic. India would provide the internal security to ensure public safety and would also provide economic benefits. The reason for this merger is neither race nor religion should ever a factor in bifurcating and dividing any entity(nation, state, locality).

The people in both Bangladesh and West Bengal have not just the same language, they also have the same culture and traditions. They need to be unified. India surrounds Bangladesh. The Bangladeshi immigration issue can be handled more effectively if it becomes the autonomous republic of Bengal.

A healthy body obviously does not want an unhealthy limb to be attached to it. That is clearly understood! If Pakistan and Bangladesh become part of India, people in India would benefit in the long-term as the threat of war, terrorism,and unbridled immigration would be significantly diminished. West Germany faced high costs initially in absorbing East Germany. Yet over 30 years later, Germany as a whole and individually are far better off due to this merger.

Pre-Independence India was bifurcated on tyranny,ignorance, and fear. These factors must be overcome. Bifurcations and even balkanizations are necessary at times. They should be enacted only based on regionalism in which culture,heritage, economic conditions, economic activities, and/or even their geographical layouts are significantly different due to the specific region in which the citizenry are living.

The division of any nation, state, and/or even locality should never be enacted based on religion/caste, race/ethnicity, and/or political ideology. These are characteristics that are not inherent to a specific land/area. These factors must be overcome.

While it is true that the Hindus and Muslims would have so much to work out in the new autonomous republic of Bengal, the facts are they will do just that due to the system of governance being functional and proper. Challenges need to be directly confronted ,even if it is phased in a gradual manner. These challenges should never be avoided.
