Today, Chinese provinces like Zingjiang, Mongolia and Tibet are witnessing robust economic development and prosperity. Would they have witnessed the same as independent states? In India too, while states like J&K and some in northeast have been clamoring for politicla freedom, will they survive at all as independents?

Today, inspite of shortage of skilled labour in Indian IT indiustry, Bangladeshis and Pakistanis are denied visa to work here. It would have been a different situation in case of a South Asian Union like EU. Though development cannot be an alternative to freedom but a little tactical and cooperative move for common development can be fruitful instead of resentment and anger.....Continue
