Though this page was quite popular for few days only 60 odd visitors have taken pain to go through the survey, which is not a bad number.

Thank you moderatorjee.I was just curious to knw ;)
Which party represents Maharashtrian interests more ?
Which party can ACTUALLY do something good for the state?
Second Highest Is MNS :) Not bad at all.
This is the longest survey I have ever been part of. I would request teh moderator to keep a smaller and meaningly survey next time.
U r Right Pav.Surveys should be like this.For e.g
"Pav La Apla Mhana Contest"
Do u Think Pavwala is mad?
A)yes ofcourse 99.99%.
B)yes Nodoubt 100%.
Which is the best home for Pavwala?
A)Mental Hospital.
B)National Park.
C)Zoo for rare species.
:-D.Guys please vote.Depending on your voting katta will decide which will be the best place for Pavwala. :)
My choices are here
1)B
2)C
Thanks for agreeing with me funaholic.
haha..funaholic thats really a short survey. One more choice you can add for question 2
d) Alcohol Based Rehab Centre.
1. A)
0.01 is for the benefit of doubt.
Punch lets do it this way.Moderator will give away free pass to Alcohol Based Rehab Centre for 3 voters who will suggest best place for pav.
Hows that????
Mr. Moderator – I wish your question was - Which party HAS actually done something good for the state instead of 'Can ACTUALLY do'? After all, future selection is based on Past Performance more than Empty Promises.
If mns or ss are so aggressive, dedicated, and patriotic why the EFF can't they terrorize terrorist outfits out of the country for good? Are they only dedicated and committed to blow off their own state....burning down shops, taxis? For crying out loud, are they protecting the culture by doing 'tod fod' if someone puts keechad on a statue? Valentine’s day pe 'maar peet' because people are celebrating love and compassion so our culture is in danger? A reliable bunch of saints – so anytime you want the city shut down, count on them to deliver.
SS commenting on the death of the 55 yr old killed in Nasik – Gaining political mileage using a tragic incident.. UGH!
I wish people would vote for the RIGHT candidate, regardless of cast, community, language.
Ashutosh, you are like the brother I never had.
Right candidate ? Does this term exists in todays politics?
If at all there is either he is killed or he dies accidentally or he never gets chance to came ahead and work.
Best e.g Right candidate I knew was Anand Dighe from shivsena.But he is knw more with us :(
Mr. Ashutosh, your proposed question -- Which Party has done good .. is actually a sarcastic expression, so i can understand. Anyways survey reflects the non-agreement with their style. (No violence).
To be accurate, there is no "tod fod" for culture this time, Raj thackrey don't have issues with valentine's day because SS is already using that issue. MNS has taken up "marathi manus" concern because SS is pretty loose on it, busy remodelling themselves to compete at national level.
Everybody have their own reasons and blame games, but while all this is happening, parties still grow, we vote, we pay tax, we suffer for paying tax, new flyovers get constructed, one lack cars come on the road and lot more and we are very much a part of all this. Bottomline - we cannot escape this survey (at least in our mind).
There are mumbaikars who support raj thackrey's concern but don't agree with his implementation. And there are people who go down the street and give gali's to panwala where they are smoking for last 10 years, but can never understand the problem.
And then there are people like you and me, who just watch and debate, and then vote the right candidate who never see the light at the end of the tunnel. I pity us.
People would want to vote the right candidate, but what if there are no right candidates around. They will vote for candidate from their community, cast and language and all that. We all will do the same.
I remember, manishbhau's comment few weeks ago on bharatratna issue, while there were debates happening over who should be awarded bharat ratna and indian of the year, baba aamte passed away. he was probably the last person in our times who was true social worker throughout his life. And the news didn't even survive for two days in the paper. This is the reality. There are no right candidates now, but that doesn't mean we don't pay taxes :(.
This survey shows that pretty much no one wants the suggestions for Maharashtra by Vikas (http://www.marathikatta.com/story/1472#c3688)
But then the survey also is by people like the users of Marathikatta..
I have one doubt - is the survey results reflective of what Maharashtrians actually think? In other words, does katta and maharashtra think alike?
Yes, i feel survey on katta shows what generally maharashtrian think. But problem is if they think at all.
:) Aaj Khush to bahut honge tum haingggg.
Right that survey reflects what maharashtrains actually think.specially after seeing that second highest fav party is MNS. They have been supporting MNS silently ;)
"Nahi nahi violence galat hai .par Raj sahi hai ";):)
NEWS ALERT : funaholic has no work
Just like u pav.InchPinch.No double pinch.
funaholic seems to be generally in a jolly good mood eh..
I am very bad at understanding complicated charts and surveys (it gives me good excuse to skip boring meetings ) so lets see if i can make it any easier for myself...
Keeping only the questions and the top choice answer, the survey looks something like this to me

hmmm... some answers are bigger questions than the questions themselves
Kiran, Meemumbaikar (& others) you guys are experts on simplifying things ;-) ... can you make it a little more simpler ?
Kiran already did (in response to Mr. Ashutosh)
Below is my char annas worth of precis writing ..
--
This is an important enough issue for a lot of maharashtrians but it is even more so for our no-good politicians, who are the main cause of both the problem and the violence. They politicise even community events like chatt pooja to incite their opponents to indulge in unjustified acts of violence.
The marathi culture of Mumbai is slowly losing its strength and can be preserved, to an extent, if marathi movies, by improving their quality, become popular like bollywood movies.
The common people of cosmopolitan Mumbai, all of whom are equally hardworking, feel that there is no party or politician who really represents Maharashtrian interests and can actually do something good for the state.
They don't want their job-creating private company owners, majority of whom are non-maharashtrian and don't necessarily speak marathi, to differentiate on any basis except merit for the job.
Though the image of the Marathi manoos has been tarnished somewhat there is no bad publicity among MNC's. So jobs will continue to get created in Mumbai and there will be no solution to the problems of migrants unless there is a change in the law.
