If this nonsense about tamil vs kannad,marathi vs north,punjab vs haryana,jammu vs kashmir,norteast vs bihar,dalit vs brahman,hindu vs muslim,aryan vs dravidian,sikh vs hindu,christian vs rss and other tommyrot does not end soon,i will not be surprised that our great nation may go down the balkan way and disintegrate. Why dont we all remember that linguistic or religious sensitivities aside,we are all children of this country and need to show a united face to the world. In my opinion right wing hindu parties share most of the blame for having left us divided,and terrorists are indirectly fuelling the agenda of the rightwingers by their antinational activities.

Dear, Try to learn something from the phrase "Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam". Dont narrow your mindset. Maharashtra is not a most developed state in India or World. Lakhs of people from this poor state go out in other states and in other countries to earn their bread and butter. If you really want to implement what you think then first bring back all those maharasthrians back to your state where farmers suicide everyday. Then rest of India and world will think about not encroaching your so called Mahan Rashtra.

Indian people including Maharasthrians turns developed foreign countries into India. Is it good to start beating Indians living there and pass racist remarks to them? There must be some civil way to handle such highly sensitive issues. Showing your support to Raj Thackrey gives him boost and then MNS people beats up North Indians with the thinking that they have full support of the maharastrians and such acts will make their base stronger in state. You must first of all oppose the uncivil act of MNS people.

Bihar is a unique case... even god cannot "replicate" Bihar anywhere else or "undo" what is there in Bihar. Just remember that while Bihar has not created any cricketer other than Dhoni in the past - Bihari migrant labour like Rohan Kanhai, Kallicharan , Sarwanan and Chanderpaul are true world beaters. I am no Bihari - but I think there is huge amount of talent in people there which people of Maharashtra can make use of.
8500 job vacancies in Railways filled in Maharashtra this year.
Out of 8500, 8000 jobs filled by UP/Biharis and only 500 by locals. Laloo Prasad is doing a good job by stealing pan-India resources and giving to his state people! That's why farmers in Bihar are not committing suicide. They have the Railway Ministry to loot.

Farmers in Bihar dont suicide. I think Maharastrians should learn this thing from Bihar and implement it as soon as possible.
Study the history of the city and you will find what exactly has been the contribution of Marathis for the financial capital of India. Take away Bombay and we will find that there is nothing left in this state. Keep this provincial politics out of this city please

don't be so sentimental - Bombay survives despite the lousy politicians and administration because Gujjus in South Bombay make sure the right people are paid to do the job and that too only in Malabar Hill, Worli, COlaba and Cuff Parade - the rest is gutter , gutter and more gutter. ( anything with "East" attached to it ) Cross the suburbs and shithole starts and the terrible life of Thane and New Bombay is everyone to see. The power cuts there will put Lucknow to shame !!

But for me it is you who seems to be in favor of "Divide India"... Can't you say Mumbai is built by Indians and not by any Marathi, Gujrati, Bihari or Tamil.
People like you are the biggest problem for India.....

Totally agree, many people here may say that Maharashtrians have done nothing and if you remove Mumbai from Maharashtra then there will be nothing left in the state. These foolish people havent been throught the state of Maharahstra. Maharahstra is the most urbanized state in the country (this is based on reports by govt agencies). In most of the other states only the capital and a few areas are developed rest all is in shambles.

Do not tell us about our History. Because of mumbai You got some present unlike your History. We gave favorable environment to every Indian. Doesn't mean you teach us what is our history. Mubai built by Marathis and it was used by Indians to fulfill their dreams. Don't forget your roots and history.

All politicians of states (named in 1956 on language basis) Tamilnadu, Karnataka , Maharashtra, Uttarpradesh, Bihar are the REAL TERRORIST OF THE NATION. People of Bharat utterly do not have the feeling divided on language basis. Let all these politicians come in a playground with swords and fight with each other. The people of Bharat will be very peaceful and progressive looking those politicians fight and kill themselves.

guy after guy posts insanely, one more insane than other. You say states are real terrorists? how come? India is a federal republic, which is based on the premise that linguistic rights will be respected. Which is why many states have joined India. Linguistic states are a natural outcome from it. If India doesn't want to provide linguistic state freedom, hell with India. Many of the linguistic states are as big as Germany, or Japan, or France, or Spain each of which are nations. Linguistic states are the only progressive states of India, developing at faster rate. Rest are BIMARU, similar to Africa.

i think some persons are insane in understanding statements. I said Politicians of states are the terrorists by artificially selecting language issues and divide people for votes. Indian culture is not based on language. Family traditions in india are same even though they speak different language. Real insane are taking politicians statments as true.

Tradition is very different, which is why people people from different states rarely marry, and have few things in common(except some festivals similar to what christian or muslim nations have, but they are different nations). India is a diverse country, which only exists from 1947. Accept history as it is, not how you want it to be.

My Dear, Please accept the history as it is. Our country tradition or culture is based on Bhagvat Gita or Bhagavatam which is the sole authority of our culture and tradition. Even in NASA they have found the truth now, that vedic culture is 200 crore year old and world also was establised 200 crores year back. Even americans and british people are accepting and have even seperate period for Bhagvat gita in schools. But in India people are acceptng BRITISH BASED CONSTITUTION AND AMERICAN LIFE STYLE AS LIFE STYLE. Indian politicians are just following British rulers divide and rule policy in different forms. Please get into the root of the cause. If the people of Bharat not divided no invaders would have entered India including Mohamadians or British.Please don't take Medievel India as our true tradition. True indians do not need any education or admnistration efficiency from others.
What a time this has been for India where Political Parties are springing up like Mushrooms everyday. I pitty Big B for being falsely targeted to such an extent that this noble man had to come out in media and speak in Marathi just to prove his loyalty because of some stupid politician who want to get political mileage and get some votes from the people. We have already faced Racism in the British Rule. Religious conflict often occur in India. Casteism still exists in India and just now people are becoming more aware and trying to get away from Casteism, this new thing has jumped up, Regonalism. People who support these things should think, where are we heading now. I have seen some South Indians who are very good friend of mine who don't speak or even understand Hindi at all because they have never been taught Hindi. I read some of the comments on CNN-IBN forums which states that some south indians still don't consider Hindi as a national language. Being a Gujarati, I love speaking Gujarati but I don't have any problem speaking Hindi or English if understands only these two. Move ahead people, forget about Aryans and Dravidians. Forget about the religions. Forget about the castes. Start leaving in Harmony. Help each other and respect each other. That is the way India is going to be a superpower. That is the way to prosperity and development and if there are prosperity and development, people don't even have the time to think about these rubbish mentality. Be happy.

Dear Parth Mehta,
The true regionalists are some of these Hindi-Bhashis.
Despite staying in non-Hindi speaking states for many years, they refuse to learn the local language there. They think the local language, people and culture are inferior to Hindi.
Thats the bloody problem. They refuse to acknowledge the fact that non-Hindi languages have been given equal right to Hindi as per the Constitution.

I am not targeting South Indian or North Indians here. I just gave an example of South Indians. If the Hindi-Bhashis don't give respect to other languages, they are equal culprits in that case. The bottom line is we are Indians first.
