Regionalism can be defined as a phenomenon in which people’s political loyalties become focused upon a region that is Regionalism implies people’s love of a particular region in preference to the country and in certain cases in preference to the state of which the region is a part. Roots of regionalism is in India’s manifold diversity of languages, cultures, ethnic groups, communities, religions and so on, and encouraged by the regional concentration of those identity markers, and fuelled by a sense of regional deprivation.
• Regionalism is conditioned by economic, social, political and cultural disparities. • Regionalism at times is a psychic phenomenon. • Regionalism is built around as an expression of group identity as well as loyalty to the region. • Regionalism presupposes the concept of development of one's own region without taking into consideration the interest of other regions. • Regionalism prohibits people from other regions to be benefited by a particular region.
2. Reorganisation in India’s North-East(1970-80):- The basis of reorganization was tribal insurgency for separation and statehood. The main institutional response of the Union government was the North-eastern States Reorganisation Act, 1971 which upgraded the Union Territories of Manipur and Tripura, and the Sub-State of Meghalaya to full statehood, and Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh (then Tribal Districts) to Union Territories. The latter became states in 1986. Goa (based on Konkani language (8th Schedule)), which became a state in 1987, was the sole exception.
3. 21st Century Reorganization:-Movements for the three new states —Chhattisgarhout of Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand out of Bihar and Uttaranchal out of Uttar Pradesh— were long-drawn but became vigorous in the 1990s. And the most recent one, we can see with the division of Andhra Pradesh, giving a separate Telangana, which started in 1950s.
However despite regionalism tendency, federation of India has stood the test of time. The National Integration has dominated and the regionalism itself has effectuated the vision of national integration.
