India is a synthesis of
cultures, religions and language of the people belonging to different castes
and communities has upheld its unity and cohesiveness. Constitution further
goes without saying is a symbol of unity in diversity and that the state is
under constitutional obligation under equal protection clause.
Atrocities during colonial period gathered citizen to fight the rulers and drive them out of the country, people from all walks of life selflessly participated in the freedom struggle. People lost their lives, went to jail during protest, but they keep fighting collectively despite being a synthesis of diverse social and cultural element is a big example of unity in diversity and it holds special significance for our country.
This diversity can be
attributed to our past comprising of years of migration, intermixing,
inventions and compared to isolation through the natural geographical
boundaries. India witnesses a history of experimenting cultures giving rise to
new forms, whose diversity can be felt in the number of cultural groups,
religions, languages, occupational units and socio-political groups. India
presents the scope of different cultures and traditions, different social
groups and communities had different values and different legacies of organised
values giving rise to similar heritage fewer generations and it differs from
region to region.
The merger of customs and the development of teachings, the
development of tolerance and solidarity in which leads us to unity in
diversity. The same effect of migration was seen when people belonging to
different ethnic groups immigrated to India. They mix up adopting their social and
biological characters with local population exchanges and expressing new forms
of customs and social designs resulting in diverse physical forms and
lifestyles.
Mass involvement with such a diverse language family proves to be the
strength of our cultural roots. We go through phases of cultural development
following ancient traditional values. Despite the difference in our social
structural formulation, the complexity of the caste system has led to the pain
of preaching.
Our secular state and constitution gives us the status of a
sovereign, secular, socialist and democratic republic, which we all enjoy with
pride and joy. This also denote and mean collective approach and equal
opportunity being rendered by our lawmakers.
The framers of the Indian
Constitution have also acknowledged and made specific provisions for this as it
helps to promote the basis of equal opportunity for all. ndia is a plural
society. It is repository of multiplicity of cultures. Our civilization stretching over five thousand years, provides the most distinctive feature in
the coexistence of unity in diversity.
