According to the National Integration Committee, national integration involves developing feelings of unity, solidarity, and cohesion among citizens to create a sense of common citizenship and national loyalty. The document outlines that national integration is needed to strengthen the nation, protect constitutional values, prevent conflicts, remove social injustices, generate economic growth, preserve democracy, and protect the country from foreign aggression. Some obstacles to national integration include communalism, religionalism, linguism, casteism, and poverty. Educational programs that can promote national integration include merit-based admission, uniformity in school uniforms, curriculum focused on democratic and secular values of modern India, co-curricular activities, celebration of important national dates, and educational tours and film exhibitions.
