Maharashtra and Jammu and Kashmir are winning the race to be the most narrow minded populace among the Indian states, with Assam and New Delhi close behind. In a way, these states get to have their cake and eat it too. The economic engine depends on the work and presence of outsiders and the contributions of outsiders, but by belittling their efforts and insulting them, they get to maintain their own sense of superiority.
The trouble with such interpretations is that you really start believing it and you cannot stop. For example, Iraqis are all Arabs, but they manage to find enough reasons to kill each other at every available opportunity. In a way, the Jammu Kashmir behavior is similar to the Iraqi behavior as they are mostly fighting their own ethnic kindred folks. Delusions have no end.
