Politics vs Religion vs India

India is shining once again in every field, be it sports, technology or business growth. Team India wins 20-20 cricket world cup in 2007, Vishwanathan wins chess championship, Indian business men are being ranked in top among the world. It looks like our country is moving towards success day by day. But wait, something is still acting as a barrier in the way of success.
There is a saying - United we stand, divided we fall. As we know that the key to any country's success has been its unity among its countrymen. With India it is no different. But there are still some diseases left in our country which are really fatal for its development and success. The main disease is lack of unity among Indian people. India is a country having so many religions and so there is always tension among communities. But to add fuel to the fire we have our well known politicians, who play a vital role in dividing the masses. But they alone are not responsible; the countrymen are themselves responsible for what is going on today. They never try to move up and think above religion and unite. They easily fall target to extremists and their political allies. People kill each other in the name of religion but politicians live and watch. its like lighting the crackers and watching the fireworks. There is a need to unite in order to protect our country from terrorism and many other dangers. The main thing is religion should be followed as a personal belief but never given importance in other fields. Religion is a way to connect to God but now it is used to disconnect the countrymen from each other.
A war is going on. We have to defend our fort (India) from attack. But if the soldiers have no unity, then there is no need of attack; the fort will collapse itself and demolish.
So it is our duty to think as an Indian - what decides our future in the country.
Politics, Religion or Our Identity as an Indian.
