The ongoing controversy about Mumbai and who owns Mumbai is sad & tragic. Leave the political aspirations of Shiv Sena & MNS, the Marathi people, who support these two political outfits, are fast loosing the respect and sympathy in Indian Union. The days are numbered before something big & ugly, not in the longer interest of Indian Union, waiting to happen, if the Chach- Bhatija are not stopped!
The question is not to whom the Mumbai belongs, but the way the leaders of these two political outfits are loosing the normal etiquette and respect for the other leaders, cricketers, filmstars & other celebrities, situation will go out of hands. The parties fear that if they acted against the duo, they will loose the Marathi votes, which will go to SS and MNS. Congress, as well as the BJP are in fix due this.
But what is Marathi self respect which these Thackeray family is making an issue about, is not understood by the people who are living in Mumbai for decades ! They are not understanding what all this circus is all about. He only feels that the growing prosperity of Mumbai with so much infrastructural projects, it will become gem of the world, one day. These petty politicians are making fun of actual Marathi culture, which has had absorbed various cultures into it. That is why Mumbai is Mumbai, it is no where near to Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Ahemadabad, Banglore, the list is long!
Then what has gone wrong...?
Are the Marathi people being discriminated against the other language speaking people ?
Are the Marathi people are not being allowed to work hard and achieve what the non-Marathis are achieving?
Are the Marathi people are being harassed not to become competetive?
Are the Marathi people being prevented from attending any professional exams which they were eligible to attend?
Is the Marathi Manoos is prevented from going to work anywhere in Maharashtra and importantly anywhere in India?
Is those claiming Mumbai, actually belong to Mumbai ?
Is only Mumbai is Maharashtra ? Is Marathi language is in danger in entire Maharashtra ?
If it is so, there are no sizable non-Marathi speaking people in Satara, Marathwada, Konkan...! If the Marathi Manoos feels that its Marathi culture (Marathi Asmita) is in danger in all these parts of Maharashtra, then it is not those non-Marathi speaking people, who come from UP, Bihar & MP, it is the Marathi Manoos himself to be blamed for the same !
Have the SS & MNS have any facts & figures for the jobs going to the non-locals in this interior parts of Maharshtra ? Why concentrate only on Mumbai ?
They find the Marathi Manoos cornered in Mumbai, not because the labourers from UP, Bihar and other States have come to earn their livelihood and they are getting the job absolutely based on their competetive edge, they maintain over the local people, who are more into these sorts of hooliganism than to work really hard.
SS & MNS are misleading Marathi man. They are asking and alluring him to vote for them so that once elected they can also loot the people of this State. They are making him emotional on the grounds which is nowhere near reality. India is such a big & purely democratic nation, which even stuns the USA & Europe, such small & cheap thinking on the part of great Marathi leaders, are giving shame to entire Marathi language & Marathi culture !
Is Marathi culture is so weak that it needs goondaism to protect from those hapless labours who are just interested in earning his livelihood and nothing else. Marathi culture and traditions are taken for ransom. It is high time that right people from Marathi culture speak up against the SS & MNS otherwise this family could lead to a blood bath. They will not be affected much as they will rest in their high security bunglows, it will be poor people in hutments and hawkers, rickshaw-wallas and all those people on the road will be at risk. The hatred these Chacha- Bhatija duo is sawing, could lead to Maharashra turning into anarchy.
My apologies to my Marathi friends, but what these SS & MNS are doing is what Shivaji did 4 centuries ago in Surat. He looted the city which was Hindu, had not looted any Marathi manoos and never had war with any Maratha State ! But that loot may be justified from the Maratha point of view, as they were very poor to establish their own State.
But what is happening now, can not be jsutified in any case. As they have made billions, for themselves. But what these rich politicians need? They already have billions in unaccounted money. They have billions themselves and all its party leaders, who have earned in millions, even being a Shakha Pramukhs. Any project does not get passed in Mumbai, untill a CUT (bribe) is not sent to all these local goons, who are doning cap of Shakha Pramukhs! Is the Marathi manoos on the road, is earning aything from these people ? The answer is BOG NO !!!!
While this controversy goes on, it will be raised even further. They are taking up any damn person who comes in their way. They feel themselves as unstoppable. They think they can make any damned statements, any move, anything that they feel, required and needed to prove & portray them as the only messiah of Marathi people. But the question is do Marathi Manoos is in such a bad situation that it requires these semi-goons to protect them and their asmita ?
One thing is sure. The side product of 1980 anti-non-marathi campaign made many Gujarati investors to move out the state. They all had business offices in Mumbai, but Mumbai atmosphere was not conducive to business. They shifted their plants in Gujart, near Mumbai. It developed the entire Mumbai, Vapi & Anakleshwar belt. It became one of Guajarat's highly developed industrial belt. History is repeating this time again, but this time it could call for doom for Maharashtra. The reason is Mr. Narendra Modi, Chief Minister Gujarat. He is waiting to grab all the investment opportunity offered and earned.
Remember, NANO -TATA plant was being asked to be out of Singur, West bangal ? NAMO ( Narendra Modi, as poluparly called in Gujarat) was quick to invite TATA as well as provide all the infrastrucutre in Guajarat. Maharashtra was approached by TATAs, but they were not given land they required in Ranjangaon, Pune. Maharashtra lost jobs, income in terms of Taxes, development of backward areas, which such huge project always bring togather with them.
Maharashtra lost its leadership in developing State long back. Bihar is doing better than Maharashtra in developments. Remember, it could be a situation if Marathi Manoos goes for livelihood in Bihar, some day. As the present Marathi leaders have lost vision, where etiquette is a pre-requisite.
It is high time that they understand the reality. SS & MNS are really playing with the fire and they need to understand that only to earn votes and rule the State is not the ultimate thing they should have. As a political party they have many things to do !
My Marathi friends perhaps would not agree with what I have stated above, but the truth is is the political support to SS & MNS comes from the inferiority complex they are feeling due to the better competetive edge these migrants enjoy over the Sons OF The Soil !
Are these "Son Of The Soil" are of superior race, as Hitler thought himself to be Aryan, the original human race! Mumbai is a pot-boiler for them. they have no Marathi Mannos interest in their heart. It is only the power they want. If the interest of Marathi manoos is at their heart, they must show what they did while the farmers committed suicides ? Dis Bal Thackeray or Raj Thackery or for any reason raj Thackerey visisted or camped there for few days ? Did they tried and forced the Government to finish many many unfinished irigation projects, which lie in unfinished state ?
They will conviniently blame the Govenrment for the suicide attempts by the farmers. Since it is a socio-political crisis the State is facing, what attempts they did, which materialized on the ground. Why they did not made hullabaloo, for the farmers' suicide issue as they are making for no-sense Mumbai-marathi issue, for those farmers, whos were being looted by the middlemen and sugar barons.
They have answers for all and any of the questions, but only sitting in air-conditioned chembers. (As they believe that it is easier and effective to be BOL BACHCHAN than to work in the interiors.) They do not want to go to villages of Maharashtra and work out solutions to problems those people are facing. Marathi asmita and marathi interest lies there, in the ineriors of Marathwada, Konkan, Satara & Vidarbh. Where the farmer is in dire state.
Leave farmers' issue, the education wise also Maharashtra a lagging far behind. Banglore, Hyderabad, Channai all have been persuing the globle standards for studies, but in Maharashtra all educational institutes are in the hands of Political leaders. Who are looting hapless parents, who find sending their children to Australia cheaper despite the threat to their life.
Bal Thackery issues fatawa against Australian players, but has he ever tried to build some good reasonably costing educational institutes? So that the parents sending their children to Australia or NewZeal Land can teach their children in India, or Maharashtra itself.
Besides Thackeray family has no right whatsoever to protest against the Australians for attacking Indian, in Australia, while they are doing the same thing in Mumbai with non-Marathi speaking people.
BCCI please take note: There is no problem if Shiv Sena or MNS is in power in Maharashtra for allowing Pakistani players to play on the soil of Mharashtra. If they are not, Pakistan supports terrorism....killing our jawans....blasting bombs.....bl..bla..bla...!!!!! It is easier to blame Jaya Bachchan & Amitabh for opening a school in UP, have they opened any such institutes which serves the society free, without charging any fees ? They are political leaders! They care so much about Marathi manoos !

great post! -js
That was a gr8 job. Rahul Gandhi seems to have found what these Senas deserve. They will always sit in the airconditioned chambers/office. Rahul showed them how to take up the issues which touches a commoner in Mumbai. Very well said, Marathi Manoos is feeling embarrassed by these overtures of Senas.
Mumbai has always beloged to MH, there is no issue about it, but the way Thackerays have raised this issue, marathi manoos himself is utterly embarassed. He finds it difficult to see an eye to eye to other residents in Mumbai. Thackerays have only one goal, to win elections. Sharad Pawar's NCP & Congress are equal in taking the blame for wooes of a Marathi Manoos. It is them who started to play politics to maginalize Sena vote bank by propping up Raj. They succeeded in thei rdevide & rule politics, but the burns are faced by the non-marathi migrants. Rahul should have stopped Shrad Pawar & Vilasrao Deshmukh & Ashok Chavan for that reason !!!!
