In Punjab also, there were two linguistic groups: Hindi-speaking and Punjabi-speaking. The Punjabi-speaking people demanded a separate state. But it was not granted to other states in 1956. Statehood for Punjab came ten years later, in 1966. Nagaland was formed as an independent state of India in 1963 after the Indo-China War of 1962. There was an experiment of the ‘bilingual’ Bombay state, consisting of Gujarati and Marathi-speaking people. After a popular agitation, the states of Maharashtra and Gujarat were created in 1960. In later years sub-regions raised demands for separate states on the basis of a separate regional culture or complaints of regional imbalance in development. Three such states, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Uttaranchal, were created in 2000. |
