Raj Thackeray is mis-understood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
by fulfundu@rediffmail.com on Jul 15, 2008 01:45 AM

How many people have heard original speeches of Raj Thackeray?
Some facts:
-In none of his speeches he said he is against north indians coming to Mumbai
-In none of his speeches he said he is against celebration of chat pooja

What he said:
-People coming to Mumbai should keep law and order. He targeted only people from Bihar and UP and not the whole north indians. I am not interested in commenting about respect of law that biahri and UP people have especially unemployed and goonda migrant in mumbai

-He is against using Chat Pooja as a show of political strength in Maharashtra by UP-Bihari leaders. e.g. Mayavati held a rally in mumbai and said "UP to jhanki hai,Maharshtra abhi baki hai". Numerours goonda politicans from UP-Bihar are using chat pooja as a show of strength in mumbai.

-Accept the local culture and try to learn the local language.

Mistakes he made:
-He was very harsh in what he said.

-He did not keep media happy. In fact he can not as the whole english and hindi media only published distorted and carefully picked and chosen version of his speeches.

Why so much backlash against him:
-Media has maligned him. Most of the people have no way to access the right information

-UP and Bihari people fear that he could get more hold which could prevent their family , friends,relatives,acquaintances from settling in mumbai.

How to stop him:Start behaving when in Mumbai, Respect law and order,Don't make mumbai red by spitting pans,Stop shitting in railway tracks!!!!
