It was one time when Bal Thackreay repeatedly warned Maharashtra government to stop the floods of outsiders,people rediculed him and called him regionally biasd. When his party ruled the state,he conveniently forgot all his earlier proclaimations. Now the situation is like that of a local train,when you are inside you stop others from boarding.Now even the so called 'outsiders' are also complaining about the flooding of Mumbai.Influx of non tax paying population is one of the main cause of this problem.They are increasing the burden on all the civic services and also a great risk to the safety,law and order,health etc. Bolywood has also indirectly added to the myth that any bhola bhala can come to Mumbai and become a rich man in no time and also have a couple of beautiful girls falling all over him.

All are welcome in Mumbai. All that Pankaj is saying is pay your taxes, live clean, keep the city clean, obey Mumbai laws, dont siphon Mumbai money to UP Bihar and South India villages. If you live in Mumbai earn in Mumbai be proud of Mumbai. Dont live in Mumbai and yearn for Jaunpur Allahbad Lallupur or Rabripur...

The original mumbaikars were only fishermen. So everyone else are outsiders.

No doubt that our constitution permits every citizen to settle in any part of our. This does not mean you creat anarchy in your own state(UP&Bihar)and migrate to another prosperous state like "swarms of locust" to creat anarchy there by creating slums, dislodging locals and putting pressure on civic aminities & state exchequer. Maharashtra has not stood as Guarantor to Biharis, UPwallas & Bangla Deshis.

Nobody is restricting anybody from coming to Mumbai. All are welcome. But dont have double standards. Try all your tricks in Delhi Patna Lucknow or Bangalore and Chennai or Kolkatta and see what happens. Dont test the tolerance of Mumbai else the Mumbai Ocean will swallow you!!!

thats a load of nonsense about mumbai's corporate tax contribution ,which i have been hearing for years. The fact is many corporations are headquatered in mumbai but have factories all over india and all over the world. so tata has factories in places like bihar and jharkhand and tea gardens in the north east. most of the income for these companies comes from places outside bombay. so lets stop blowing mumbai's contribution out of propertion
