Prithwindra Mukherjee commented on Prof. Reddy is a visionary who dreams of the unification of
India and Pakistan
The specificity of an Indian - be he Hindu or Muslim or Christian or
Jew - reminds me of "angaara shatadhautena malinatva na munchate":
you may well wash a piece of coal for a hundred times, it will not rid the coal
of its black hue. This specificity prevents Indian Jews settled in the Promised
Land from getting assimilated to the local population. This undefined
specificity makes us feel closer to the Muslims from Bangladesh
or Pakistan
than from elsewhere.
Some kind of an intuition had helped the colonial administration stick to the vision of a cultural unity that was the characteristics of the erstwhileBritish India . Champions of
"divide and rule" policy issuing bills favourable to the Partition of
Bengal, these administrators were capable of such paradoxical urges also.
Behind the present disparity mostly in the name of religion, deeper interests in the name of survival will lead us first of all to a Federation of the erstwhile British Indian model, consolidated and expanded into at least a common entity like the European or the African Union, leading a harmonious relationship with the neighbouring Yellow Union.
