I don't think size has anything to do with development. There are advantages and disvantages in both, small and large sizes. Experience so far has been that if divisions have solved few problems, they have created equally complex problems. If size alone were the criteria, NE states would have been the most developed ones in India. In my view, any further division of larger states should be deferred till there is clear decision on;
1. Sharing of river water
2. Sharing of other common resources like power plants
3. Resources for establishing new capital city and other infrastructure
We should not be carried away by slogans of self seeking politicians. In my view mindless divisions bring more troubles than they address..Remember, countries are uniting to form economic blocks..We need to take lessons from them and see how larger states can have beetr say in running India..
