In the current thread, I never said anything about deferring to anyone with greater knowledge of India, though I would do that. (I was talking about PNG.)
Ah, I read this wrong:
I don’t know if they created divisions within PNG as much as in India. After all, the country was split between a lot of ethnic groups in relatively isolated small territories before the Brits and other Europeans invaded. They likely deepened those splits, but I’ll defer to those who know the place more than I do.
