Bihar and UP Needs to be Independent from India?

By Naren Singh

Feb. 13, 2008

A year back I had written about the regionalism in India against core Hindi-speaking people of India specially Biharis -

Almost a year later the situation remains same because the socio political stand of the republic of India still stays unchanged or worsened against Hindi-speaking Indians (now on, the so called elite north Indians from UP are included in this list too).

After Independence, several states of India flourished on the solder of hard-working and incredibly honest Biharis, UP'ites or Rajasthanis. Assam, Punjab, Haryana, Maharashtra, Delhi, Bengal and even Jammu and Kashmir are few of the beneficiary states of united India. They flourished day and night and Biharis laborers and other workers remained at same pathetic level and were treated as third class Indians.

Now all of the sudden, the Biharis and UP'ites are being thrashed in different parts of Independent (sometime I laugh at this independence) Republic of India. Maharashtra, Assam and Delhi are the latest states to add insult to injury to the North Indian Biharis or UP'ites. The repetitive attacks on Biharis and UP'ites all around the country are the almost unquestionable hint that the Biharis and UP'ites are no more welcome in rapidly developing republic of India where big MNCs are coming with big number of jobs. Huh!

So the game plan of developed states of Independent India is to keep majority of Bihari and UP'ites 'Majdoor' and therefore they should always be in 'Jee-Huzur' mode to the natives of states they are doing the 'majdoori'.

Being a Bihari, shouldn't I feel ashamed of being an Indian today? At least I feel today!

We, the Biharis and the UP'ites were the one who started the fight against British government for the Independence of India. Hello India - Mangal Pandey was a north Indian.

I personally think that rest of India has forgot our contribution to the struggle for Independence of this country and they will never offer dignified behavior we deserve. Since the Biharis and UP'ites are already living in India as a foreigner therefore these two states (at least) has no reason to call themselves as Indian and must start their homework to breakaway from the Republic of India.

And to the dumb political jokers of Bihar and UP - once we were the best in India and because of your dumb and self-suicidal act of political gimmicks we are at the bottom of any sense of self prestige or dignity today. We the Biharis and UP'ites are literally ashamed of you. You are nothing but merely a political puppet to whom who are playing with the sentiments of common and innocent Biharis and UP'ites. So, hey Bihari and UP'ite politicians, would you be ashamed of yourself? I wish, you could.

Now Khuswant Singh will pen down a new book- “Train to Bihar”. - Jayant Kumar Singh - Feb. 15, 2008

Bihar and UP junta are being let down by their own people. The so called MPs and MLAs of our region. These good for nothing representatives have made Bihars/UPiets so vulnerable that any Tom, Dick and Harry can tarnish our self respect any where they want.

We all know the strength of Bihari MPs in center who are supporting a impotent government at the center. If these people have any self respect, cannot these MPs force the center to act stringently over MNS goons otherwise they will withdraw their support?

If Shiv Sena can choose a separate line from BJP to support a Maharashtrian as President of India then what is stopping our MPs to raise voice to safeguard our self respect?

Even if they cannot act in such harsh situation one can think what they would do otherwise. - Ashok Sharma, Boston, USA - Feb. 15, 2008
