While I certainly do not agre with the approach of Raj Thackeray, there is certainly some amount of merit in the facts stated by the Thackerays that those who have turned Bihar into hell should not try teach nationalism to Mumbai and Maharashtra. The facts do show that Bihar is a hellhole due to years of neglect, illiteracy, corruption, Gunda Raj and the criminal politician nexus. No where have I seen the level of casteism, corruption, apathy, anarchy, deprivation & poverty and such a gap between the Rich and Poor as in Bihar.Now that the mineral rich portion of Bihar has gone to Jharkand (another hellhole with all the dirty political shenanigans, defection, et al)the poor people of Bihar will find themselves in a catch22 situation -unable to survie in their home state and unwelcome everywhere else. Imagine the gall of Lalu Yadav and his Rabri that after looting the state for close to 15 uninterrupted years, they now have the gall to be self appointed guardians and spokespersons of the Mumbai based Biharis!! What the hell is their base in Mumbai??? I at least hope that an honest, decent & well intentioned man like Nitish Kumar will be able to do better in Bihar and improve the lot of the hapless people there

Thought provoking message. If the politians had not spoiled Bihar, poeple would not have come out of the State. Now, Biharis should wake up and tell Lalluji to shut up and remain in Delhi and do not even try to enter Bihar

All these years Bal was talking of Hindutva. Now suddenly he realised the Marathi Manoos. He should clarify has he given up on Hindutva and Hindus. If yes, he should be kicked in the Butt for playing with Hindu sentiments. If no, then are Biharis and UPites not Hindus??? Please clarify Bal. (Incidently Bal in marathi means a Child).
Why is BJP silent on this? They also talk of Hindutva & Hindus. And so does VHP. Why are they not supporting the Hindus of North India????/?
