States are often doubtful of cultural diversity. State 2 reasons for the given statement.

थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

The reason why states are often doubtful of cultural diversity are as follows:

Political fragmentation: When there is a diversity in terms of ethnicity, linguistic or cultural groups it may become challenging in creating a sense of national identity or unity. This can create tensions and conflicts between different groups within the state.

Fear of separatism: In some cases, states may be doubtful of cultural diversity due to the fear that certain groups may demand greater autonomy or even independence, leading to the breakup of the state.
