Celebrating the existence of a state which has been around for 50 years begs the question. What exactly has that state achieved?
Haryana was founded on November 1, 1966, by the Shah Commission, which sought to divide Punjab after careful consideration of the language spoken by a large section of the populous. The Haryanvi language thus became the unifying factor for a populous that regarded itself as a united agrarian community, capable of sustaining a new and developing modern state.
According to TJ Byres, in his seminal work, Rural Labour Relations in India, Haryana’s manufacturing industries have experienced sustained growth since the 1970s. Further, according to the CMIE Kapex database, Haryana ranks first in terms of increased investment amount from the previous annum. Encouraging statistics, however, mask a spate of social evils that have long crippled any semblance of civil society within the state. How, then, has Haryana reached this crux, and is there any tangible hope for millions of Haryanvis?
