The way zee kept promoting regionalism really started this whole mess. The Calcatta ki laadli Ujjaini, Huryana Hurricane Himani, Hyderabadi Hema etc. Plus they explained on live TV where the votes were coming from and brewed this unhealthy trend.
Other Reality shows like Indian Idol or Fame Gurukul never took this route and would just announce the total votes and in later rounds who got the top vote.
Who cares what % of votes come from a certain place. But highlighting it they invited trouble. In a country which is already divided with religion, language, caste, urban, rural factions, it just needs a small spark to ignite a backlash. No use complaining now, get a life GS.
