I dunno why maharashtrians have problems wid north... the only problem i see is the number of people coming to the island daily basis... people are increasing but land is same... resources are limited... travelling in local trains have become impossible and load shedding is seen for abt 6 hrs per day in suburbs... north indian south indian maharashtrians is not the issue but mumbai has to be saved or else it will diminish from our map....

They make thier house on Marol pipeline and Udhav and Raj dont like that. Each place has become so dirty it is not good for anybody. They should do farming and try to live withiin that earning.

mumbai is a land of opportunities... even a wada pav seller can earn more than a Dr... it doesnt need degrees to make someone crorepati... but anyways now it cant take more people as the whole land is saturated... the worst part as i would like to support bal thackeray in this issue is most of them coming to mumbai have agriculture land ,families back in there villages... still they will come here... this is the problem wid the state government for not encouraging them in there real profession of agriculture and forcing them to go out of states to work as labourers

i agree, its the problem of resources versus the excess population, but no one on the chat seems to get it, maratis, or bengalis or telugus or tamils have nothing against north,or for that matter any other indians, the problem is that the metro cities of india were not designed with massive in-migration in mind, all the states have an obligation to develop that too quickly, without playing politics with people and their aspirations
