Though his way is wrong but the will seems strong.. What he is doing against North Indians is for sake of all Mumbaikars.. Maharashtrians, already settled North Indians, SOuth Indians, Gujjus, etc.. Mumbai is crossing its limits in terms of population and no more burden can it put on itself... The real estate prices have gone up because more people want to stay in mumbai and the the other state people are selling off their properties there and coming here to stay.. all migrants either have their properties in their native place or their families thre.. They are earning here and sending all money back to native place.. They have no love towards this city... All those who have settled in Mumbai would understand the love for the city.. Raj wants to say that lets stop the loads entering the city now.. Its high time.. neither the maharashtrians nor the other state ppl who ahve already settled here can stay in peace in future if the City Population goes on increasing.. It would be easy for other state ppl who have their familes home to return back after some years if they dont afford or dont wish to stay here after Mumbai goes for toss.. but what would happen to the Ppl settled here ?? Where will they go then ?
THis demonstration may not be the right way but government and supreme court should take some steps to stop more load of population in mumbai and concentrate on improving living conditions in those areas from where ppl are migrating to mumbai..

"They are earning here and sending all money back to native place.. They have no love towards this city..."
Ohh Really, assume some right wing telling this in US and UK for all the Indians....
Raj's unnecessary remarks are untolerable. We are Indians at heart. In Delhi, our office has more than 20% Maharastrians. they are like our brothers. Should they be thrown out. Mumbai earns from taxes of personlities like AB, SRK,. Bollywood does have lot of North Indians. Its' time when SRK, Manoj Bajpai, etc. unite and say resist characters like Raj. Kudos to Laloo who is very forthcoming on the issue

shishir..plese tell me what office are you reffering to..private or government..give details ..else it sounds fake..
Guys, this hype would be benefited by those people who have created it, we common people won't get anything out of this. Who knows internally they must have planned this to get free publicity with the help of media. Come On guys it's a old game and we still fall prey to it. chill out yaar, tomorrow you will see both raj and amarsingh embracing each other in some party meeting, this is just a fake drama.

If there's Amarsingh,Mulayam and Abu Azami then none terrorist needed.They all have spoiled Great land UP of freedom,fighters,great kalakar and holy place.Now they dont have any work so they want to spoil Maharshtra where illiterate,uncultured gutter-worms came form UP/Bihar.Shame on these dogs.They dont deserve to live in Great India too.
What I feel from all this issue is our news channels didn't understand what Raj Thackeray said on Big B.
He said, "Amithabh earned his name, fame, money after working in Maharashtra but he became "Brand Ambassador" for UP, he came in politics from UP, he is building a school in UP. Then why can't he (Raj) can have pride in his own state and think about it".
And Now Mrs. Jaya Bachhan is advising Raj to donate his land then they will buiild a school on Aish name. I'm sure she got a tip from Brother Amar Singh.
Most of the people commenting on rediff do not know the real facts from Bombay.
One example, few years back when Railways was conducting exams for the posts in Maharashtra. Exams call letters reached in Bihar and UP. But, candidates from Maharashtra didn't receive Exam letters.
Just imagine if this happens in ur state what will happen there.
Even Delhi CM couldn't stop herself to accuse UP and Biharis coming in her state. But she has to say sorry because she is from Congress. But do u really think the sorry came from her heart.
Note: I'm not a spokesperson for Raj Thackeray or MNS or Shiv Sena.

Exactly..we are not against the quality..only the quantity which spoils the city..else why would there be visas for other countries...america would have had direct trains from up and bihar...but that is not the case...as it is these lalus and mulayams are appeasing muslims..and communist china..instead of hindus uniting we are fighting amongst ourselves

Its already happened in Karnataka where people from Bihar have appeared for the exam in hordes at the expense of local Kannadigas
all hype created by bhaiyya news channels..like aaj tak..stop giveing him time on air..and all issues will die..what diff it makes on what bhashan he gives?..all todfod done by party members..and that abu asmi of samajwadi party..that desh drohi who was involved in 93 blasts...
but raj has raised an imp point..why were 1200 positions for grade 4 ..normally recrucited locally ....for railways...in maharashtra ...advertised only in news papers of bihar?...one fine day bombay wakes up to find hordes from the bimaru state on their railway platform ..having arrived for exams...is this what that chor lalu meant by national integration?...
One cannot ignore some of the genuine points raised by raj..the city infrastructure can only handle poeple to an x extent..cant go beyond it..and we do not wish to see the slum city further expand...

We do not know who is desh drohi. But it is sure that if the People like Raj Thakare are given free hand, they will divide the India.They are miguiding the people of Maharastra.They want to confine the people of Maharastra in their states only.The people like Raj Thakare are the main enemy of Maharastrian people. He should be arrested on the basis of Unconstitutional language.Who is he to decide the movements of Indian people from one state to other.He has seen only Maharastra,give money to him so that he can see the world outside.
he is openly inciting lumpen elements to violence amounting to mass murder. What is the govt. waiting for ? put him behind bars so that it acts as deterrant to other goons.
Frustrated after thrown from Shiv sena. Took the help of some mindless youth.. Wanna some power.. atleast be a minister..Shame to the Great Marathas.. Black sheep of Thackray family..Culling should be done to him and his party as he is spreading hated flu..
