This was the fateful day in the history of Maharashtra & Mumbai. Over 1000 people were dead in a day diue to the heavy torrential rains lashing the city like anythig. There was devastation everywhere. Teh commercial capital of India was at a standstill for 3 days. Where were aoo,Mulayam,Amarsingh,Nitishkumar at that time who are making a big hue & cry over Raj Thackrey's statements ? These North Indian leaders did not take pain even to visit Mumbai and enquire regarding their North Indian brothers in Mumbai for whom they are now shedding crocodile tears. None of the states in India send any reief effort to Mumbai except for the Andaman & Nicobas ,the reason being the governer of this union teritory happened to be a Maharashtrians ,Mr. Ram Kapse. I have a question.When you chant from the root of your naval that Mumbai belong to entire India were you sleeping at that time? Do not underestimate the Marathi sentiments...

By the way Rediff has not reported Delhi Lt Gov's comments abt North Indians on 7/2/08 . Bihar & UP need to think about this also.This is one more bashing comment in addition to earlier comments/actions in Assam, Punjab,Goa.....(increasing list).

we Maharashtrians should now put a limit to our tolerance levels. Mumbai & Maharashtra for Maharashtrians only should be our motto of life from today.

Ok... in that case rest of the world's motto will be to kick Marathi's out of their respective regions.

This can be acceptable......
I am a south indian from MUMBAI,was born and raised here and he is absolute right this city gave me more than i could ask for my duties, responsibilities lie here not in the south of course i believe in the nation but you have to understand if india with so much diversity all those people from south i would like to see in kerala say 400,000 biharis or bangladeshis opening shops say in kerala...priority should be with the locals, not by reservations but when i see bhaiyyas acting as if are in bihar or UP,cmon maharashtrians have done more for india than any other state when all those northy and southy kings were sucking up to the east india company and the mughals they gave us a shivaji,lets not forget....give them their place.Mumbai is for every indian but i am sick of the slums all you need to do is go and see VT or Kurla station you will know the city has reached a point of saturation...Jai Maharashtra Jai Hind

India is in danger bcoz of these INTERNAL DOGS not from outside....
Now MNS have take serious action againgst north indian (from UP and Bihar state) peoples who is working in the railways on behalf of native maharastrian peoples. Jobs in the Maharashtra in railways must be given to the native marathi people and that is their prime right. and also MNS have to take the action against the daily incoming (Parprantiya londhe) they are not coming with the facility the mumbai have to bare. If the political people said that bihari and up people having share to developed mumbai it is wrong they are using the facility which is the prime right of the native people. And All the maharashtrians are with now MNS not SHIVSENA who are using the maharashtrian for only votes. Jai maharashtra Jai hind

If you have "such" pride, then let Maharashtra work solely on its own income. If a disaster happens, then nothing will go to them, coz it is the "taxpayers money" from all over India. Let them develop with their money.

thousand of corores. Belive me thousands of crores of money move from mumbai to delhi in terms of tax. Mumbai is close to dubai, on sea. It could easily be another shaghai but for uncontrolled migartion. Migration should only be allowed in control way.

While educated youth is a nation's pride, Mr Raj sets an example for how they can be a shame too.
Unfortunately only Shivsena has true commitment to protect Hindu culture. Mr. Bal Thackerey, is a hope for Hindus all over the world. But why is he making himself so small, speaking maratha...maratha...
RE:What a pity...........
by Prasad Kothare on Feb 08, 2008 05:43 PM Permalink
sometimes read newspaper instead of surfing. If Raj gets arrested, leaders from UP/Bihar will also be arrested who started it first. In Mumbai no leaders from any other state come and make some irrational statements such as distributing laathis. Why leaders fro UP and Bihar only?

"shivsena" the name drived from Shivaji maharaj ( a maratha king) . It was meant to be mrataha pride. I wonder how you start beleiving it was menat for hindu pride
