SUCH A SAD STATE IN INDIAN FOOTBALL 💔 Women footballers from Suruchi Sangha Club (IWL 2) suffered throughout their journey - No food & water provided - Manage in ₹125 for 2 days - No manager with the team - Multiple players without confirmed tickets

"We are Indians—born of this land, bound by its Constitution, and equal in dignity, identity, and rights." Equal- No, lmao. You enjoy exclusive rights and privileges not available to rest of Indians. You've ILP and sixth schedule among other different laws. Others aren't allowed to settle at your place buying land, while you're free to do it everywhere. You're racist towards mainland Indians at your place but cry victim on global and national media at stray incidents against you in mainland.

Racism is reprehensible, and it is encouraging to see swift action. But let’s stop pretending that stray insults by demented individuals are the worst form of racism in this country. What is far more serious is state-backed, institutional discrimination written into law. Citizens from Arunachal Pradesh can travel, work and live freely anywhere in India. But citizens from others states need an Inner Line Permit(ILP) to even travel to Arunachal. People from Arunachal can buy land freely anywhere in India. But citizens out of Northeast are not allowed to buy an inch of land in Arunachal and most other NE states. People from Arunachal can get a state government job in other Indian states but vice versa is not true. Arunachal issues its own "permanent resident" card for its "citizens". Indians outside are not eligible for it even if you manage to live there for decades. On one hand, they lecture how people of Arunachal are as Indian or more Indian than others. On the other hand, they issue for themselves separate PR cards excluding others. What matters more? Words or actions? Despite such protectionism, parts of the Northeast have witnessed violent insurgent movements that have killed civilians from other Indian states. Migrant communities, particularly Bengalis and Biharis, have been victims of such violence. On just one night in Khoirabari in 1998, 500 Bengali Hindus were slaughtered. There is no such equivalent racism NE citizens ever faced in other states. The worst they ever faced were stray racial taunts. That is all. The contradiction becomes sharper when viewed alongside the broader framework of concessions and protections extended to the region. Most local communities in the Northeast enjoy Scheduled Tribe (ST) status nationwide, and the region receives disproportionately high fiscal transfers and budgetary support. Five times more than average. Even when it comes to taxation, there are differences. Locals of Sikkim and Arunachal are exempt from paying income tax. These concessions and protectionist measures might arguably have made sense in the past when Arunachal was not as developed. But today, Arunchal, Sikkim and Mizoram are doing far better than most other Indian states in terms of Per Capita Income(PCI) and other economic KPIs. If racism is wrong, which it is, it must be consistently opposed. Condemning individual prejudice while overlooking institutional exclusion undermines the credibility of that stance. A serious national conversation requires acknowledging both interpersonal discrimination and structural asymmetry, without selective outrage. [Most of what I mentioned here is not applicable to GC Hindus from North East as they are exempt from all special privileges outlined above]
