Intolerance in India- and nation versus country?

On a thread- commenting about the AIB- and the growing intolerances here was a note I wrote- may seem abrupt, but you would get the hang of it.
"On this count- your patriotism has nothing to do with it. Corruption and Armed Forces are the only thing that keeps this country together. And it is not the job of the Armed Forces to keep us as one- the divisive forces are from within.
Pricks in the Censor Board commented that 'no script writer in his right senses should use the word Bombay in their scripts,' is this India?
The Constitution guarantees all citizens to be treated equal but as a Brahmin, I am in the minority for admission to college where my child is concerned. Is this your India?
We were never a nation before and we have not a single string of connectivity to keep us one. Our chewing gum- was the collective hatred for the British, once they left, neither the Nizam of Hyd nor the King of Kashmir wanted to be a part of this collage of people.
Only the Politicians who smelt blood and money insisted on clubbing this country and calling it a nation.
The hatred for the British is actually laughable- as they banned Sati and ensured that it was almost wiped out- and here 67 years into Independence and counting our nation has no balls to stop khap panchayats from stoning couples of different gotras...
Is this your India?
Yes, I am sure there are many good things too. Just as there are those many fools who don't know that you cannot buy land in Nagaland, yet still scream blue-murder about Article 356 in Kashmir, a right given to them in exchange of them acceding to India and more laughable (again) that it was Sardar V Patel who pushed it through the parliament- the same SVP whom the BJP hide behind these days.
India."
These are the same fools who want to take the AIB organisers to court, and they want to scream blue murder about the bad words and foul language... tomorrow, I fear those who know about my language prowess, except my dear friend Nilesh's mother who thinks KD's the kindest...- will send the moral police to my house, or a censor board notice.
Well, fuck you.
