absolutely true - mumbai was a fishing village / port and everyone there is an outsider. marathi was picked up there only because of its proximity to other areas where marathi was spoken. Due to states being divided on language, bombay became a part and capital of MH. But frankly, why did they make Bombay the capital of MH when most of its growth, economy as well as language was not maraathee? They should have made another city the capital which would better represent the common marathee culture. This means that marathi speaking people are greedy. They wanted to get all financial benefits from a port city which was rather well-developed at the time even though it was not due to the efforts of maraathee speakers.
Another idea is - Raj should try to take out all computers and industries from the state because computers were neither built by / in MH or 'their' people, nor do they run maraathee based programs. Thus, raj has no right to use the fruits of others' development.
