In this #IndicTalk, Dr. #SubramanianSwamy discusses the need for a national identity for India. He tells us that how India is one of the oldest continuous civilizations in the world. While all other civilizations were wiped out, India still stands. Giving the examples of Persia and Greece, he says that these countries were converted to either Islam or Christianity but India is still about 82% Hindu and that is nothing short of a miracle. But even then, due to some policies followed by leaders of independent India, the youth of today's India is in an identity crisis, wondering who he is.
He says that every great nation in the world has a clear idea about its national identity. Giving the example of the U.S., he says that while anyone can live in the U.S. the defining national identity of the U.S. is White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant Christian. He argues a similar clarity about national identity in the case of India.
He differentiates between nationality and citizenship. He says that anyone, following any religion, can be a citizen of India, be it a Hindu or Muslim. But when it comes to national identity of India it is essentially Hindu. Taking many witty forays into present crisis and historical journey of India, he argues for a strong national identity of India, based on Hindu culture and ethos.
