0The three challenges faced by India at the time of Independence are yet to be resolved completely-
i. At the time of Independence, there was an urgent question: how was integration of the territory of India to be achieved Although the challenges of nation building were resolved by our leaders yet we are not able to forge a strong sense of Unity amongst our own people. We still face the challenge of separatism from some parts of Indian Union like Jammu & Kashmir in the north & Nagaland in the North eastern region of India. We are still struggling hard to resolve these two issues peacefully.
ii. In spite of laying a strong foundation of secularism in India, the independent India has seen some of the worst communal riots in the country. The issue of establishment of uniform civil code is also a strong debate able issue in the country.
iii. India has become one of the fastest growing economies in the world. In spite of achieving high lands of economic development, same rural & urban areas of India are still backward.
The fruits of development need to penetrate at all levels. India has made its mark on the world yet evils of poverty, illiteracy and unemployment are yet to be resolved completely.
