RE:Historical and Geographical facts about Mumbai.
by Ardeshir Modi on Feb 12, 2008 08:52 PM

I tend to agree with Sanjay. Bombay was a state that was a mixture of Gujerat and Maharashtra. I wish the Indian government had left it as that. But now that the seperation has been done are we forgetting that we are INDIANs after all. If India were to be broken up in different countries and Maharashtra were to become a country then Mumbai will be a seperate country too like Singapore due to the structure and build up of a variety of cultures that reside here over a period in time. Do we want that. By causing these petty clashes we are allowing the other forces like terrorism to become stronger and we weaker and so if we do not come together we will be destroyed by them. Think people, think, do want that situation to happen. We fought the British out of India as INDIANS and not based on our various religions. Bengalis, North Indians, Parsis, Gujeratis, Maharashtrians, Muslims, and all other religions came together for the call of freedom and we won. Bomb blasts and we help each other we do not see religion then so then why now. WE ARE INDIANS and I am proud to be one. JAI HIND
