In erstwhile Bombay Presidency, Marathis were the majority people.
There was no fight as such between Marathis, Gujarathis and Kannadigas.
Maharashtra state was created to clip the wings of Morarji Desai and Chavan, who nehru saw as a threat.
Nehru did similar politics with Tamils and Telugus to clip the wings of C Rajagopalachari, India's first Governor General and Subsequent Prime Minister (those days, CMs were called PMs) of Madras Presidency.
Linguistic State Reorganisation was a fraud perpetrated by Nehru whose effects we are living today. As long as Sardar was alive this madness never took off. Sardar Pate's Kar Committee explicitly recommended that linguistic states not good for India.
Nehru and congress added the language politics to divide and rule;
Manipulating caste, divide Hindus, self serving agenda - this is the essence of nehru family and congress. Now of course they are using this thakeray idiot to split the marathis.
Hope maharashtrians and hindi speakers will give a fitting reply to these crooks next elections.
Solution: Let the feelings of antinational vermin be damned. Make citiies like chennai, bangalore, hyderabad, mumbai, lucknow, kolkata and ahmedabad be declared UTs with immediate effect.
The article by anil is third rate. he shows a subconscious marathi bias. Nevertheless his core point is correct...language politics is not good for India. The only beneficiaries will be anti national vermin that seek to undermine Indi

Are you kidding me. You curse Nehru and yet at the same time you want to make all non-hindi cities under hindi control. Are you out of your mind? That is the best way for national disintegration. Try to take chennai away from Tamil Nadu lol or Hyderabad away from AP or Calcutta away from W. Bengal or even Banglore away from Karnataka hahaahahaha. You have to be kidding right. What Anil has written is whats on the marathi conciousness. You are foolish if you want to deny that this thinking is not shared by most if not all maharashtrian. Ask any maharashtrian on the road and he will tell you what he thinks about delhi.

christy idiot. UT does not mean Hindi control. It will mean, no single state can claim title to cities and to build a genuine Indian (Cosmopoliton) city.
