Are you trying to justify Raj Thakrey's and his party member's act?? Just think for a moment if that would have happened to you in a different state or a different country??!! How would have you reacted??!! It is the duty of every indian to respect Hindi, and learn to read, speak and write hindi as it is our National language. But unfortunately some people feel bad/insulted while doing that. By speaking Hindi we are not insulting any other language, but by not speaking Hindi we are definitely insulting our National Language. No language is bigger than the National language and no state is bigger than the Nation. But today people in India are feeling proud when they are called Marathi, Tamil, Bengali,......and many more, no body wants to be an Indian which is really sad. It is nothing more than the Politians ill-will which is coming true. Wake up Indians!!

I support you views-Hindi is national language-Something which makes us feel united-It is necessary.The problem is not just language-Because in Maharastra Hindi is respected more than other regions-The problem is people's mentality-Mentality to Live and not Live.Mentality which makes them believe in premitive ideology that the land of soil should live in their soil and no one else-The insecurity that the culture of the land is in distress.

Well said ksr, so true. I am born and brought up in Mumbai and am not a Marathi, but that doesnt make me any different than Marathis. I respect them and expect the same in return

Try to live in Madras, you wont get respect even if you stay until your death, if you dont learn Tamil. U people are worse than the ISI agents, anti nationals. Shud be kicked out from India.

When you lose senses you speak rubbish-Maratha culture and language is not all about India-Come out outside maharastra to see for yourselves.

What KSRs school teaches:
1. India is not my country. 2. All pakistanis are my brothers & sisters. 3. Jeenah was the father of nation. 4. Aurangabzeb is our national leader since he converted our forefathes to Islam. Pure anti national KSR.
