State reorg based on languages - has it helped us building a better nation or has it caused more harm than good? Please comment..

It was only a bane.
Patel would have simply taken a scale and pencil and cut up the map into smaller squares and rectangles for easy administration.

Only when we learn to respect and honor all Indian regional languages the issue of language will be put to rest.
To avoid the divisiveness of languages, Indians must acept a national (political) plan for the compulsory teaching of three basic languages:
1)English, the international language of trade and commerce
2)The regional language or regional cultural language and
3)Sanskrit, the classical language or root language that holds all Indian languages together.
