Do not go to the North Pole and complain that you are feeling cold. Do not go to another country and complain that people don't like me there.

Very well said.Those who want us to stand with them should first return the money that the governmnt had spent on their education from the tax payers money so that the money could be deployed to give education to people where we have not reached so far.

What about Bal Thakeray calling non-marathis in Mumbai as outsiders???
Mumbai which is commercial capital of India where all indians invest in stock market. Most large companies have their HO in Mumbai and so declare their profits from there. Bal has the gall to think Mumbai belongs to his family

Mumbai is a commercial city . Thakrey wants to make it a communal city. The economy of Maharashtra will collapse if the head office of companies operating in different parts of India is shifted to the respective state.

Maharashtra gets % of excise and sales tax revenue from central governemnt just because the registered office is in Mumbai.

Thakrey should not raise issue of Bihari, Bengali, etc. At this age and in the larger interest of the country let him declare that he is a champion of Hindusatni cause and not a Marathi cause.He will not do so. He ditched BJP and extended support to Pratibha Patil because she hails from that state.

Bal Thackrey doen not represent all Maharashtrians and if all Maharashtrians had the same mentality then Shiv Sena would have been in Power.I am a Marathi and proud to be and almost all my dear friends are non-Maharashtrians and they are as part of Maharashtra as I am.
All this rhetoric is because of Supply-Demand imbalance in India and again in most of the western countries we have the white people talking about Indians taking their jobs etc and that is what is happening in Mumbai, it is a part of selfish human nature.
Then again dont you think that it is high time that we have have around 400 metro cities compared to just 4 for our vast population so that no one has a chance to fuel the selfish part of human nature.
