.... if you live for long time in MH you already know marathi (90%) .... i guess majority of marathi donot pay attention to this .... futureless .... hate monger Raj Thakare .... instead of helping poor .... and doing good job .... he is misleading people .... and cann't be less than terrorist ..... there was never regionalism important .... unless it was Kashmeer (see what happend to kashmeer ) .... people from north south east west .... all feel unity in diversity ....
THIS IS RIDICULOUS WHY SPITE THE FACE BY CUTTING YOUR NOSE? THIS IS INDIAN WOMAN FOOLISHNESS WHEN SHE SAYS WHAT SHE SAYS NO ONE IS BIGGER THAN THE COUNTRY AND THERE IS NO NEED FOR THE LIKES OF BACCHANS PLAYING THE ONE UP MAN GAME WITH THE LIKES OF THE RABBLE ROUSER RAJ THACKERAY
KEEP YOUR DIGNITY AS YOU HAVE KEPT IT FOR ALL THOSE YEARS DONT LET YOURSELF GROW BIGGER THAN WHAT YOU ARE I DID NOT EXPECT A DIGNIFIED WOMAN LIKE JAYA TO MAKE SUCH SENSELESS AND STUPID REMARKS IT DOES NOT SPEAK WELL OF HER STANDING IN THE INDIAN SOCIAL FIRMAMENT SHE HAS BEHAVED LIKE A KITTY PARTY WOMAN
India is not a separate state or an Island,it is an integration of different regions called states,segregated on the basis of language so as to promote unity in diversity to preserve the cultures and traditions of various regional and lingual backgrounds.It is foolishness if any regional leader is not concerned about preserving their language or tradition.Irrespective of the language n religion,it is mandatory for every individual to practice and speak the local language.Though,I am a Maharashtrian born n brought up in Hyderabad,I respect telugu and can read,write and speak it fluently.I never try to dilute the telugu customs n traditions.But u can find a lot of hindi prevails in Hyderabad in day to day use-it is accepted because it is OUR national language n we need to respect it,with out hurting the feelings of the local people.I hope the message is clear-'When ur in Rome,U ought to,do as romans do n speak n respect them' else U deserve to be kicked on ur a** and driven out...

But nobody can force .... neither hindi is forced ....its maximum part of india that can communicate with each other in a language that is much popular than any other .... take for e.g. english though not so much strong language it beats french or german .... around the world.... if someone moves for few months or years .... he may not be supposed or forced .... i lived for 10 years in maharashtra ..... actually the first language i spoke with friends .......... marathi were always nice and gud people .... now this raj thakarey row ...is just spoiling ...atmosphere ...... i still believe majority of marathi donot bother about this stupid polititian with no ...future .... maharashtra is the place where i spent childhood ..... i love india .... hope people don't force haterate
Yes, Hindi is our national language and we can speak our own language anywhere in democratic nation such as India. Most NRIs in USA celebrate American festivals in USA. Most NRI kids speak American English in USA besides their own language. I am myself a Gujarati born and brought in Maharashtra. I do speak in Marathi in addition to Gujarati, Hindi and English. It is important to respect local culture and learn local language wherever we settle.

It does not mean that majority speaks hindi so that it is national language. Hoy many people and how many days you peopole will jump on this. If that is the case. You have to diclare this is Sanadhan Country (Hindu country) Diclare this first. Then you are Hindi man. Do you have the intention to diclare this?
I wonder why a goon like Raj is not behind bars yet. I neither speak Marathi nor do I know Hindi that well. A Hyderabadi from birth, I feel it's shame on the Maharashtra govt and the Indian judiciary to let this goon reamin free - It's a shame on democracy. I wish all the Indians would react in a matured way. Raj is spoiling the name of Maharashtra like Mamata is spoiling the name of West Bengal. Are these leaders ???? I pity India has such selfish leaders who could stoop so low in the name of politics.

you are perfectly right.the hindi film celebreties are the biggest hypocrites-they earn their bread from hindi and speak english as it were their mother tongue.why should one have any objection if anybody speaks hindi because it is the national language of India,Lingua Franca of India,his/her native language,his/her mother tongue. No one should try to offend other person on account of his language ,reliogion or native place. I fully support Jaya.

You are an Idiot! I am from Australia and even i know that UP and Bihar are two separate States.
JAYA WOULD HAD GOT BASHED HARD IF SHE HAD SAID THIS DIALOGUE IN TAMILNADU. JAYA,TRY PROMOTING HINDI IN TAMILNADU IF U R SO PROUD OF IT. PERHAPS U MAY FIND YOURSELF IN SOME HOSPITAL.
Only one simple message. Our country is right now the fastest growing economy in world and if we Indians induldge ourselves in such stupid issues triggered by such idiot and selfish politicians like Raj Thakeray then, we should not expect the bright future of this country.
Does a maharashtrian not see hindi movies or hindi channels on TV? Why this fuss then? Do Maharashtrians not live outside Maharashtra? We have lived in MP for 300 years and are still maharashtrians. so what?
my message is that if we r living in india and our mother toungh r hindi so we should not be bother to speak hindi....but even if state like maharshtra or up condemned....then the controversy over the languauge.... but i think it should not be a big issue about the language or speaking in hindi....
