How South India Is Different from North India – Southern India Vs Northern India

I am a born north Indian and my favorite states are Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan. And before I visit other regions and south India, I thought like all of India is same. Once I visit southern India, I brainstormed and thought how both north and south are different. But honestly I love both of them and all of India for different reasons.

Let me tell you how these both regions south and north are different!

Southerns use Water Boats as Transportation Medium.

1. Many states in South use water boats as transportation medium. Whereas in North water boats are not available.

2. When a south Indian says tomorrow they mean it. Whereas in north when a north Indian says tomorrow majority of people don’t trust.

3. Majority of South Indians are much and more trustworthy than north Indians.

4. South Indians prioritize education over all other things unlikely north Indians prioritize money over all other things. In a nutshell north Indians are money minded people.

5. Once I visited south, I found cities and villages are much safer, organized in order, and much relaxed. Whereas northern states and its streets are more chaotic, you will see so many honking horns on streets, lots of homeless cows blocking roads.

6. The south is more developed than north because people are aware there and they don’t vote easily on false promises.

7. In south there is less urban and rural divide compression to north. Both urban and rural has a share of equitable growth through their lives.

8. Southern states are less corrupted and they better do in terms of waste management compared to the north.  

9. South is best in all over India in terms of women empowerment and literacy rate. Because of their first priority with the birth of every single child is good education whereas North is worst in all these things in all over India.

10. Their regional parties make policies to keep in mind their residents and they mean it. Vice versa North regional parties play cast cards and north Indians cast their vote on cast system. In results no regional party work on the development and welfare for the society and all casts residents. They all take care about their castes only.

 

South India is Greener and Tropical

11. The North is a mix of deserts and beautiful mountains looks like storybooks of India. Vice versa south feels greener and extremely tropical like some nearby Asian countries.

12. Whenever you visit southern states, you would feel like back in time. Everything from people to culture is totally different.

 

Tropical South India

13. Shapes, colors and dialects all are different in both regions. Generally northern are whiter and taller whereas south Indians are darker and shorter. As you all know every region in India has their own different language.

 14. Majority of northerns speak Hindi. South is totally different most of the states have their own dialects.

 

South Indians Love to Eat on Banana Leaf Over Plates

15. Foods and dishes are totally different in both the regions. South Indian cuisine are full of coconuts and rice. And much spicier than north Indian cuisine. Rather than the north Indian food is more like you eat outside India full of vegetables, chicken, wheat and butter.

 

Delicious Indian Chai/Tea with Milk

16. But most surprisingly there is one thing which you will find common everywhere in India its hot and delicious tea. Which every Indian and foreigners like to drink every morning.

17.Majority of south Indians love to eat fish whereas north Indians likes to eat chickens.

India is much more like Europe. When you visit one state to another you will experience that Each and every region has their own and different dialect, different food choices, different people, different religions, different cultures, different priorities in life, different way of thinking and so on…
