To avoid tribal wars, chaos and violence in its northern region and to have a stable and peaceful neighborhood because if Madhesh does not become an independent country in the next 10 years, it will be and ethnic conflict and violence will destroy it.
To avoid the influx of 15 million Madheshi as refugees in India. With a conspiracy to deny citizenship to a large number of Madheshis, deprive them of their basic rights and brutally block them from the army and police, hundreds of thousands of Madheshis have already fled to India, without records.
To stop the settlement of the Indian Pahadi against India on its border. The number of Pahadis and Madhesh increased from 6% to 36% between 1951 and 2011. It should be taken into account that a large number of retired soldiers and policemen are settled in the border areas through development. Those areas are still in the never-ending Indo-Nepalese border dispute. Avoid communist/conservative states like the neighbor to the north, with open borders and close relations on both sides of the border. (The current government of K. P. Oli is proof of this.)
To keep foreign power, dependent on Nepal and using its land for evil, stay away from Indian territory. Nepal, which has strong anti-India sentiments, is eager to leave room for foreigners to work against India.
To avoid the poor, lack of wealth, famine and crime areas that are on the Indian side (from the Nepalese government that continues the exploitation of Madhesh, if not caught)
To protect the interests of people who have a thousand-year relationship with family, history, culture and language in India. Myths and misconceptions about independent Madhesh vis-a-vis India
Some of the reasons why independent Madhesh is not supported by Indian leaders, policy makers, government representatives and civil servants almost unanimously are:
(1) This will set an encouraging precedent for the separatist movement in our country, as we already have problems in Kashmir, Assam, Nagalim and Tripura. (2) If India freely supports Madhesh, Nepal will flee from India and China will move closer to India, increasing security threats. (3) Nepal acts as a buffer zone / border for India. (4) Nepal can become a playground for international powers and India's security concerns will be undermined. (5) India has vital interests in Nepal's hydropower and other resources, and therefore cannot be compromised.
(6) We can't get involved in other local affairs. (7) Madhesh cannot establish itself as an independent nation. It will be small. (8) We cannot oppose our love relationship with Nepal since centuries. We have many pools of Nepalese working in India including the Indian Army. (9) We want the neighbors to be calm and stable.
Let's find them out one by one:
(1) This will set an encouraging precedent for the separatist movement in our country, as we already have problems in Kashmir, Assam, Nagalim and Tripura. First of all, Madhesh is not separated and Kashmir loves India and Assam will wonder if Madhesh can be separated why not. So at best we serve as "external examples", not internal examples. Today, in the age of television and the Internet, it does not matter if the example is given from near or far, people already know it, whether it is in South Sudan, Crimea, Scotland or in Catalonia. Second, Indians already have their own strong example of the "partition" of the nation, in the birth of Pakistan and Bangladesh, so VIBRANT and FRESH in their minds and finding a place to talk every day, where many Indians , others. than those living in Bihar and UP regions, do not know Madhesh. Therefore, independence of Madhesh cannot be another example or a better example for Indians for separatism.
(2) If India freely supports Madhesh, Nepal will flee from India and China will move closer to India, increasing security threats. This concept probably originated from the Nehruvian era of foreign policy and is a prominent feature given by diplomats and leaders even today. He first thought that Nepal was in India's "pocket", so he was working in the interest of India's security. This came close to the truth during the Nehruvian era, but is Nepal still in India's "pocket" today? Didn't Nepal come out of India to do favors to others? The recent tensions between India and Nepal, despite the general perception of India's anti-Nepal sentiments from Prime Minister Modi's visit to India's generous aid after the April earthquake, may to explain that better.
