Time and again, Shiv Sena and now MNS have been targeting one community or the other. It was south Indians at one point of time, then it became muslims, and now its UP and biharis. Maybe it would be north easterners in future cus that%u2019s the only part of that country that%u2019s left. They are politicians, so no surprise they resort to such tactics to get votes, the surprising part is that some marathis like Ashish over here get great pleasure in outsiders getting roughed up. As if there aren%u2019t any marathis outside of Maharashtra who are taking jobs from locals of some other state or countries, in future if unfortunately some innocent marathis are attacked in cities like Bangalore, Delhi, Varanasi or Indore where there are large number of Marathis, it would be only Shiv Sena, MNS and there supporters like Ashish to blame

Getting personal huh...?
Your first post started with "As a complete outsider..." - now it is getting to the point of some usual anti-Marathi rhetoric.
Maharashtra can take care of its own. We can pay back in the same coin what is done to us in Bangalore or elsewhere although I doubt anything will happen in Bangalore. I just used an example.
We will not let Maharashtra become Bihar so that some Malhotra's in Rest of India will be happy.

Anti-marathi?? Where did u get that from? I know a lot of marathis who dont support Raj in the way he is handling this issue. I maintain that marathis and Raj are right in being concerned about preserving locals interests in Mumbai, but im only against the way they are handling it. Dont forget, this is a free country, everyone has a right to live anywhere he/she wants and it cannot be changed just because a Raj Thackrey or some Kanekars want to

Totally agreed, if someone breaks the law, he/she needs to be punished. But I guess there is police to do that. We see so many of such incidents of mob violence in Bihar, and everyone hates that about Bihar and rightfully so, Raj%u2019s men beating up Bihari%u2019s, some of whom might be innocent is a very similar to those incidents of mob violence. You said u don%u2019t want Maharashtra to become another Bihar, although that will never ever happen, but Raj%u2019s men are already doing in Mumbai what happens in Bihar.
