Religious and Ethnic conflict in India.

Reasons: 
  1. Narrow and wrong interpretation of History (Aryan - Dasa - Muslim Invador)
  2. The democracy in India rests on vote bank rather then issues and hence some parochial interests never let the peace prevail (political elite)
  3. Resources are where the tribes are. (Tribal - Dikhu conflict)
  4. British interests (sided with one religion)
  5. 'Soft State' (Gunnal Myrdal)
  6. Poverty > limited resources > causes conflict > given religious ethnic flavor later
  7. Role of Media > Social Media
