What is wrong in Lalu Ji performin the Puja at Mumbai. What action MNS will take. If Raj is wise he should not touch religion. It will be counterproductive. It is strange why Raj is not touching Gujratis, Punjabis, South indians and all outsiders. Hindi pictures are normally for North Indians and those who Hindi. why he is not objecting to Hindi pictures. Raj should tread carefully. But then to regain his position he has to act.

Because Jailalitha and Stalin are not interested to perform Pongal in Mumbai. Badal and Singh are not interested to celebrate Baisakhi in Mumbai.

Try and undersand here.If he is worried about Bihari then he shouldn't come. he will come a nothing might not happen but how does he take care of safety of peoplehere ? What did he do for people who were beaten up ? nothing.
Its a game of power show and obviously people in minority in mumbai will suffer. no matter what happens.
Former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Tuesday demanded an apology from Union Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav for his %u201Cdirty people%u201D remark on those protesting alleged disparity in railway recruitment. %u201CHe (Lalu Yadav) should take back his words, spoken in an uncivilised manner. It is a serious matter which the Prime Minister has to take seriously,%u201D he told reporters in Bangalore.
Equating Lalu%u2019s remarks to that of Raj Thackeray%u2019s provocative statements against north Indians in Maharastra, Kumaraswamy alleged the Railway Minister has been trying to provoke Kannadiga sentiments.
There is nothing for the people of Karnataka to learn from Lalu as they know how he ruled Bihar for 15 years and ruined it, Kumaraswamy said, referring to Lalu%u2019s suggestion that Kannadigas should learn to be competitive instead of demanding quota in jobs. The former CM also said he would write to the Prime Minister lodging a complaint against Lalu%u2019s provocative remarks.
In a press statement, BSP national secretary PGR Sindhia said Lalu has hurt the sentiments of people of Karnataka. There is a general feeling that Karnataka received some justice only when C K Jaffer Sharief was the railway minister.
Lalu should come out with statistics indicating how many people have been recruited from each state and the projects sanctioned for each state, Sindhia stated.
BJP condemns
The BJP has also strongly condemned the minister%u2019s remark, and threatened to launc
Govt should impose penalty on raj of 500Cr. Govt should sell his car/property and give money to Nashik based marathi man's family who was killed in riot. Raj is trying to make political ground for next coming elections, but I am sure , maharashtra will throw him in guttar.

Yes, I agree. Uddhav bhau is the true successor of Balasaheb. This Raj is only trying to inflame simple marathi fellow's passion. Even Sharad Rao Pawar has done so much for state's progress, he has single handedly set up the sugar industry and lobby.
I hope the Moderator at Rediff is reading this. The politicians are senseless and talk nothing but Nonsense. But I request you, the media guys not to spread this nonsense more. All it creates is more hatred.
Rediff also report reactions in karnataka after lalus remarked kannadigas a s dirty people...imagine person from bihar commenting to another that he is dirty... jai karnatak
RE:raj never says no to islamic namaz why he says to goddess worship ?

Till we allow them to create divide and get benefit out of that they will continue to do.Pleas dont blame politicians rather we all are to be blamed.Take strong actions against such politicians and they will think thrice before spitting up the venom.Please dont expect anything from majority of poor class indians or minority of upper class indians.It is always middle class who is responsible for revolution/changes.Unfortunately indian middle class is happy aping west and corrupt also.
chhat puja is worship of shashti devi the writer of fortune.
it is an ancient celebration of fertility in many indian cultures.
why raj is insulting the goddess and also,hindu culture its difficult to understand.
if he has objection let him do it peacefully,but not hurt people.
at this moment due to raj-congress-goondagiri investment is leaving maharashtra for karnataka and gujarat.
being marathi manoos i am very worried that due to raj-congress nexus anti india forces in saudi-arabia-pakistan-china will be able to create more problems and destroy hindus and indian unity.
