Good Morning...!

This is the government of Maharashtra and Central Governments total failure that we have this situation today, that all of us have to cover our bread and see to it that someone else will not snatch that away from us...

It is State Governments duty to make some moves in the direction of safeguarding the local Interest instead of giving foolish open invitations to the 'outsiders'... and the Central Governments Duty to put their act together and pump in some confidence (Not loads of blind Money) in the sick states... and see to it that these sick governments are performing well towards the betterment of the people living below the poverty line as they are the one who come in the line of fire where ever they go...

These flare-ups are common sentiments of the common people in the state of Maharashtra which are surfacing with the outbursts from Raj. So holding only Raj responsible for all this is not correct...

And anyone who wants to celebrate UP Divas... do it but keep it to yourselves do not use it for other purposes... and nothing great about it anyways...

Industries in the area have suffered a combined loss of up to Rs.4 billion (approx $100 million) in the past fortnight of violence.

The immediate fallout could be a steep increase in the cost of labour, which in turn would lead to a hike - almost double in some cases - in the prices of goods manufactured in the industrial belt.

"The prices of steel products, electrical equipment and automobile parts are expected to nearly double in the coming weeks. The situation is a direct fallout of the non-availability of cheap, unskilled labour," Nashik Industrial Manufacturers' Association (NIMA) chairperson Abhay Kulkarni told IANS.

According to NIMA's estimates, nearly 30,000 labourers have left the industrial belt in the past two weeks of unrest sparked by the Raj Thackeray-led MNS. Many taxi drivers and street vendors were assaulted in Mumbai and a man in Nashik lost his life in the violence.

Apprehending more violence, the migrant workers have gone back to their homes in Bihar or Uttar Pradesh
