Post 1947, states were organized based on linguistics. Then they made three states based on economics in the last 2 decades. Telangana has a chance because andhra flouted the points in the gentlemens agreement. The possibility of a separate state lies in sustainability. That’s why gorkhaland will be a distant memory. There economy runs on tourism. If it still goes ahead then the state will trickle behind in growth. Same can be said about the several statehood aspirations in the NE.
Small states have zero or no say in administration and cannot influence the political power in the centre. Pulling together a congregation won’t end tribal animosity. There needs to be a unifying factor.
