	Allahabad is not a Bhojpuri land
		Making use of this new development, Purvanchal —- the Bhojpuri speaking area is being aggressively propagated as an area totally distinct in culture from the rest of UP, to pave way for creating a division in the minds of people.
		Eventhough Purvanchal, like Allahabad is part of the mainstream UP culture, and Bhojpuri is a great culture in itself, but if the state is being divided on regional basis, then Allahabad most certainly belongs in central UP.
		Purvanchal is the most populated region of the entire country.

		The citizens of Purvanchal are perhaps comfortable with this inevitability – to be able to live the lives they do in remote villages and small towns, which both the state capital of Lucknow and national capital of Delhi have forgotten even exist.

	Tehelka - The People's Paper
		Culturally and historically too, Purvanchal is a national repository — the Buddha preached his first sermon here, Tulsi Das penned his version of the Ramayana on the banks of the Ganga in Varanasi, Humayun lost his empire to Sher Shah Suri near Chandauli.
		So much enrichment has inevitably made Purvanchal a museum, for there is little of a viable future reflected in its everyday life.
		Synonymous with lawlessness, terrible violence, entrenched poverty and an apathetic and ineffective administrative infrastructure, Purvanchal is now not just on the geographical edge of up but on the furthest edges of an otherwise, largely progressive India.
