Tell me one politician of note you have produced after Ambedkar, who besides being a marathi was a product of the Indian Independence movement. MS Smita are you outta your minds, I mean Gujarat produced Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Ptel, by far the most influential and best politicians we have had. Do you see them talking abt that, EVER. No wonder they are one of the best states in the country. FYI I am not gujarati, I am bihari and I dont look at India as Maharashtra and Gujarat. It is India first, all stateism later.
