I had a chance to watch Yesterday's NDTV Talk show. Some participants including NDTV person were continuously calling Mumbai as "bombay". MNS guy, Mr Parkar shouted on them. In some of below posts, north guys are describing the behaviour of MNS representative as arrogant/rowdy.
Question is if officially, Its mumbai, why you are calling bombay/bambai. All the NDTV talk shows called kolkata/ chennai instead of madras, Thiruanatpuram instead of trivedrum, then why the diiference if for Mumbai. Name change is related to local sentiments, there isn't anything wrong in that. I guess, saying Bombay can be just arrogance/who cares attitude. All these small issues by migrants/media give chance to Raj T.
As per NDTV, 64% mumbai marathi says, Raj act was not politically motivated. This itself shows that local sentiments are with Raj
