Mr. Desai, it seems that you carry a serious chip on your shoulder about Maharashtrians. I also assume that you are a Gujarati. While one does not necessarily agree with the Thackerays' brand of politics, please do not paint an entire set of people with the same brush. Admittedly, Maharashtrians lack in the business acumen of people of other states, notably Gujarat. But, dont forget that it is because these 'ghatis' toiled in your forefathers' mills and other trades,that people from your state enjoy the prosperity in Mumbai. Don't unnecessarily villify an entire community because of the actions of a politician whose antecedents are questionable!!
