National Integration : A Contemporary Debate

Authors(1) :-Dr. Shazia Akhtar

The proposed article is an attempt to analyse the question of National Integration under different threats, real or imaginary. Since independence the Indian society has observed a lot of changes in social, political economical and cultural spheres of life. Obviously, these changes have affected the binding factors of integration; it would be relevant and even interesting to look into these effects. In this paper we would try to discuss the much discussed term of the day, “tolerance”. We sincerely feel that the tolerance is the foundation of integration. We will try to evaluate whether the term tolerance has become a word of convenience. Especially for so-called intellectuals of the day.
