Are people from Arunachal Pradesh proud to be Indian?

Question

Arunachal Pradesh is the eastern-most state of India. It is very far, the people look different, they are mostly buddhist.

SO, my question is, do the people from Arunachal Pradesh state feel Indian? - Do they refer to themselves as Indians as proudly as people from other states?

Answer 1

The question itself is quite racist because why should we north indians put the onus on people from arunachal to prove that they are indians. Why not integrate them in the main stream by having central universities, IIMs, IITs, AIIMS there. And who is a proud indian. We donot say we are indians we always talk of our caste, region and relegion. Are biharis less proud indians then marathis - so why are they harrassed there, are tamils less proud than kannads in karnataka and viceversa in tamil nadu. so why are they hounded there?

Answer 2

anyone who live in Republic Of India Loves India and by the way it is not necessary for every one to express that we love India.

If anyone who does not India then he should not live in this country

Answer 3

yes , as it is a part of our contry, every person on this soil proud to b an indian.

Answer 4

My question to you is How do you define the feeling o Indianness. Tell me if you can answer it. How can you feel like an Indian.

What I mean to say is just because a person belongs to some community or caste or creed or race, does he cease to become an Indian by birth or by citizenship. If this was the case then many of the Indians who have settled abroad and have got their respective country's citizenship should be denied every right just because the country in which they reside will argue that they just don't feel like home here..... Right....

When the Indian constituion and the union government considers arunachal pradesh as an integral part of India, then I guess the question of feeling of Indianness for them should never arise.
