As Delhi has been firmly believe and demand that a city like Bombay should have been a union territory or rather a separate state. It is a city made by INDIANS all along whatever it is today and it is the financial capital of teh nation. Truely it does not belong to Maharastra or Marathis. Otherwise if it has to function under Marathi regional threats then better it loose its shine and less let be bothered by people of India who are not affected.

I strongly agree!! I wrote about this a few weeks ago in rediff forums too. All the metros must be made U.Ts, together with the other big cities such as Hyd, Bangalore, Ahmedabad etc.
All state capitals residing in such cities must be moved to the second-tier cities.

If all Biharis, Gujaratis, South Indians etc etc move out of Mumbai...you local people will be in Permanent SHIT.. Imagine the amount of business that takes place just because of one Amitabh Bachchan(or any of the popular actors): Poster sellers, audio CD manufacturers & sellers.. singers, event management houses, radio, etc etc..Their business thrives on some actor becoming a star. So please leave this MUMBAI arrogance behind u..

hell to your thought we must belive that we are indians not maharastrian or Up or bihari.Because of you people we are not becoming world power. What a shame on you for this dirty thoughts. If today mumbai is growing it is not just because of maharashtrian people its because of all the community efforts.

Becoz, Of us(Locales) We are whatever little we are today! Dont you ever forget that. Maharashtra is the one of the most industrially prosperous states of the nation. Hoping to find a job(The reason why they call it Sapno Ki Nagri), all the UPis, Beharis, Bengalis think once they land up here their life will be Set. Once all their attempts turn futile, such people contribut to the slums in Mumbai.
