      Hello

      Good attempt.
      Introduction is fine, however, regionalism need not always be region vs nation(demands of greater autonomy can be there while broadly adhering to the national ambit); various types of regionalism can be seen such as demand for state autonomy, supra-state regionalism, inter-state regionalism, sub-regionalism and ‘son of the soil concept’.
      Structure of the answer is good too. More examples can be incorporated for example, in cultural factors, you can mention linguistic regionalism, tribal identity, historical factors etc. In political-economic factors, you can talk about Dravidian politics down south, formation of states like Telangana, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh due to unfair/unequal distribution of developmental benefits etc. Other points are fine.
      In psychological factors, feeling of us vs them can be mentioned (for example, campaign for
      safeguard of interests of Maharashtrians by the Shiv Sena and backlash against people from other states).
      Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
