Main Body

1Political factors:
1Inadequate representation in local state bodies e.g. kuki tribe phenomenon of meitei due high representation in state legislature.
2Communal/Authoritarian rule of one group over another creates effect of subjugation e.g. Osomo Taba was in a dominant position leading to dominant position on cloches with majority populations.
3Cultural factor:
1Maintainism creates diversity e.g. Sinhalese Buddhist majoritarianism led to fears of end of Sri Lankan Tamil culture in Sri Lanka.

All these factors result in violence, hatred and instability.

Implications for Country's Social Fabric:

1Rise in hate speech, mob lynching and small hate crime
2Women are at greater risk as they are made the target of hatred e.g. numpur viral rape of 2 women going naked and panelled in the street
3Violence, crime and backslipping becomes the norm and emerged violence in other parts of the nation e.g. NK Haryana saw raidin muslim violence
4Fosters regionalizing secession: This, ethnic identity struggle stretches and limits the social fabric, and hence must be resolved at once through legislation and social upliftment.
