Raj have only shown how politican can provke hatred in this fragile judiciary / democracy by his speech. India as a single country have a federal system of ruling, however this does not mean that central does not have any right on the state govt. In case, educated people like us get threatened by other statesman ....does'nt that mean that we are harboring disrespect towards humanity in the present and for the coming generation? This will only create havoc in the country and other states will also tend to follow the same. Raj game plan is just to voo the maharashtrians (Uneducated / unemployed youths) for his own purpose / political power, which was Bal Thackreys old game. In case, if he is so serious about the uneducated / unemployed youth he should attract more industries / organization to Maharashtra and regarding culture in democracy you cant force anyone to learn any culture / language. Imagine if culture / language is made compulsory in middleast / gulf / Europe for Indian working there, do you think this will work out?.....And do u think the immigrants needs to learn that? Hope this message will make difference in the minds of Marathi brothers / sisters who are provked by his dividing speech!

Friend,
There is something everybody is neglecting, the kind of support Raj is getting is phenomenal. Even the media is totally devided on the lines of Marathi and Non marathi..
This only indicates that what Raj is talking is the experience of Marathi population at large..
Problem now can only be solved by establishing proper law and order situation in UP and Bihar, so that Industriallization and development of business is possible in those areas so that people from these states need not go outside, they remain happy in their states and Marathis are left to their fate in Maharashtra..

After long time I am seeing a good soothing message. Good rationale and hope it helps to lessen hatred among fellow indians.

Hello, I am posting this message from Riyadh capital of Saudi Arabia. Pan is easily available here, and u are correct spitting does make the area dirty. This can only be restricted by imposing fines on the offenders / problem creators.

rajeev, it does not behove of a person working voluntarily in such a regressive and restrictive country like Saudi Arabia to talk about free movement....
