    Should we have smaller states?
    There is a proposal to set up a commission for reorganisation of states. Is it desirable to have smaller states? Deccan Herald had invited its readers to comment on the topic. While some of the readers believe that it is good to have smaller states as it would help the government machinery to function effectively, others opine that the division of states would affect the already diminishing national unity and could only add troubles to the country.
