Rediff is unnecessarily making a issue out of it. Stop listening to leaders like Thackerays. There are many well to do Marathis in Patna, who have never tried to learn and speak the local languages of Bihar. No body objects them because it's there right to freedom of language. Then people from Biharis or UP are also free to speak any language of there of choice. At the same time leaders like Raj must be made to understand this. Mrs Bachchan has wisely hinted leaders like Thackerays.
