I fail to understand if the creation of numerous smaller states do actually serve a purpose, other than off course allowing the politicians to strengthen their vote bank through their divisive ideologies? The other exercise that I find equally futile is renaming the cities (Madras to Chennai etc.). What difference does it make to a rickshaw driver, or any common person for that matter, if the city is now called Bengaluru and not Bangalore? I am pretty sure no one is entitled to higher fare/wages just because calling out the city name now involves more tongue twisting!
Creation (or approval for the creation) of Telangana opens just another can of worms I believe.
