Center should perhaps stop teaching "NITI" to the states, after 70 years of Independence.

First Past the Post (FPTP) system, or the features such as "being federal with unitary bias", All India Services or the system of indirect democracy were all the Band Aids put over India that was lacerated by two centuries of colonial rule - with the fear lest those wounds should turn septic, lest the unstable governments weaken the ailing country further and lest the small provinces of India should fall apart without a strong center. But may be after 70 years of self rule, it's time to open those Band Aids and look for how much the wounds have healed, how strong, independent and competitive the states have become, who may no more need hand holding from the peevish, senile, doddering Big Daddies sitting in New Delhi, and may be it's time to let the states who have come of age, figure out the world on their own. May be it's time the center stops teaching "NITI" to these grown up states and let them dab the canvas with their own creativity and uniqueness.
