The unity of India is challenged as we give more importance to the linguistic, ethnic, religious and other differences rather than the common nationality and common needs of all. The first step in direction of national unity is to work for peace, progress and happiness of entire people and disregard the differences in caste, creed, religion etc. But the vote bank politics is the biggest obstacle in this context.

A very good point made,Gulshan! We must try to rise above all these narrowness in terms of caste,language etc. to strengthen national unity which is the need of the hour.
@GUlshan, you have made a very good point here!! It is the obstacles such as these caste and religious beliefs that are hampering the growth of our country!! Also, it is bad enough that the very politicians who fuel such beliefs and rifts are only thinking about their own personal gains and vote banks to remain in power!!
