description A discussion of the problem of Indian unity, defining unity in the sense of Radcliffe-Brown's 'functional unity.' On this basis, it is argued that too much emphasis must not be placed on the disintegrative aspects of conflict, since conflict is not the antithesis of unity. Similarly, the equation of unity with `similarity' is seen as a misconception.

It is further cautioned that 'in the enthusiasm to evolve a uniformity in thought & behavior, with a mistaken belief that it is unity, cliff's may be suppressed.' I. Taviss.
