I was not very sure about Raj's politics before. I had sympathy for the poor north indian workers who were thrown out. But after seeing the abusive, arrogant and immoral behaviour of north indians right on this rediff forum, I have to admit that I was naive to consider north indians as good people. They really have no affection for marathi people or culture. They really are dangerous. Raj is right. These people are not ready to debate peacefully..they are only selfish and they take pride in that sort of behaviour. Extremely immoral people.

Its sad when people of a region consider others region natives as "dangerous". Are we living in a same country? You may well want your Maharashtra to be a seperate country one day....pity

You kick them and expect sympathy and affection for marathis.....what was the provocation and reason for Raj to start all this nonsense....and do you think the poor migrant who have been assalted and kicked are the ones who are posting in this forum.....Preeti you still need to grow up in your thinking

Who are North Indians? Do they include Punjabis, Haryanavis, Rajasthanis including marwaris, Gujratis, Sindhis,Madhya Pradeshis Delhi walas,and Kashmiris? Every community has its own customs, food habits, living style and they celebrate their religious festival in their own style. They feel more comfortable in living the way they have been living through many generations. There is nothing wrong in letting them live the way they want to live so long as they do not step on the toes of the local people.The best example is the USA. People will change in time on their own. Raj Thakeray is only trying to gain political mileage and that Marathi Manoos should understand.

First of all Raj Thakare has openly said in Press Conference he means migrants from UP and Bihar; and not all North Indians. It is Channels and Media constantly refering to "North Indians "

okay so what have the poor "migrants" from UP and Bihar done?
they are just pawns in the hands of the currupticians of their states just like some -- not all -- Marathi manoos are playing into the hands of the bafoonist family of Maharashtra.
They love Hitler and even draw cartoons like Hitler used to.
