If the recent events are anything to go by, I think many Maharashtrians will agree the situation in Maharashtra with regards to migration is quite grim and it will only become more difficult with time. I don't agree one bit with Raj Thackerey's words or actions, but I also cannot turn a blind eye to the plight of our state and its people. We know in our hearts and minds that we are a decent people and we can do better than what some politicians project us to be for their petty political gains.
If we walk away from this, it will only create a void which will be filled with zealots. We need to do the right thing for the common good of our state and its people, so that we can all be proudly part of a prosperous and strong India. I'd like to discuss this with like minded Marathi-Maharashtrians and share our thoughts.
