THE TENSE situation in Maharashtra is gradually snowballing into a major problem for the governments – both at the Centre and the state. That both have the blessings of the Congress makes it all the more difficult to understand.
The Indian cricket team has plenty of North Indians in its ranks (M S Dhoni, Ishant Sharma, Amit Shrma, Virendra Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Praveen Kumar, R P Singh, Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh) – will they feel safe when they come to play in Mumbai or Pune? Sachin Tendulkar is the only Maharashtrian in the Indian cricket team right now! Even the chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar is not there. Will Raj Thackeray suddenly take a stand that the team must be all Maharashtrian if they have to play in Maharashtra?
One school of thought pertaining to the indirect encouragement extended to Raj Thackeray is that his votes would eat into the vote bank of the Shiv Sena. There was a time in the 60s when the Shiv Sena was powerful – there were agitations against the South Indian communities. In those days, the Shiv Sena supremo was Balasaheb (Bal) Thackeray, who was a renowned cartoonist – his political cartoons carried enough sting and were loved by one and all. He is the uncle of Raj Thackeray.

Ahh .... what are these people behind??
I think these media reporters are deliberately raising such issues to blacken the image of Mumbai and Maharashtra. Media people are getting totally biased and they need mental treatment.
Do the media think that we have forgotten that we are Indians too??
If the answer is yes, I would say, "GO TO HELL !!!"
We know what a state means and what a nation means. Hamare mann me bhi kabhi yeh nahi aayega ki Team INDIA is full of norths and so they shall not be allowed in Mumbai.
I love India. Jai Hind, Jai Maharashtra!!

Hey Helo, from where did you got this rubbish material? We are fighting against North Indian Leaders attitude towards Maharashtrians. The one who have said this have not understood our stand.
And funny part is u add up scores of all above mentioned player, still Sachin is ahead. But let us not mess up cricket which is a game, with politics
Sure Raj is also a renown cartoonist and he should use this skills.

Hi and welcome Mr. Prashu to katta.
I appreciate you for the interest you have shown on katta.
But please, let me tell you ----
You can give comment on comment only. You are not suppose to post any comment on anyone's article.
It's Moderator's job to comment on article.
This is marathi katta and can post any article related to mumbai and maharashtra.
I got the article related to mumbai and so i uploaded it. Also i dont want to related this article with any other article.
@prashu
You say "Latoon ke bhoot, baton se nahi mante"
May be you read it when you were in school when they teach you "muhavras". But kiddo, you missed the second class perhaps where they taught that "Apni Gali mein kutta bhi sher hota hai" ......
@UnderCover,
The influx coming to Mumbai is slowly and steadily becoming vote banks and threatening the very existence of maharashtrians in mumbai. States like UP, Bihar gobble up the aid from the centre and do nothing in terms of their state development. Mumbai bears the load by giving them whatever basic infrastructure it can.[i am sure even the worst facilites here are better then ones Provided By Ms Mayawati and Mr Nitish].After that leaders like Mayawati makes statements like "UP to Jhanki hai maharashtra abhi baaki hai". Abu Asim Azmi threatens to import Lathi wala goondas from AzamGarh.Why? because they have take the silence of common maharashtrian as their weakness.
People from bihar have faced more worst reactions in Assam & Nagaland where they were brutally killed in large nos. Why was there no protest in Bihar at that time like the one we are seeing now.Governed by a Biahresque Government is a dreadful thought.
Maharashtra wants to make Mumbai like Shanghai,We only could end up like PATNA
undercover bhai marathi kids have used 'muhavras'. perhaps a mature guy like you can reply with some marathi 'mhani'
and if you dont know any marathi 'mhani' then think pause a bit and wonder why it is so
BTW if you remove the cover from your eyes you will not need to be scared and stay undercover :-)
Merinews.com!!!!!!!!!
Don't comment on this.
Amar singh=Merinews.com=Aaj tak=USELESS=DISTRUCTERS=MENTAL
Merinews is a rubbish site anyway, its not media. That was a headline just to attract some attention.
@punchtantra
How is influx and even vote bank of Uttar Bhartiyas a threat to Maharshtrians?? I couldnt quite get it!! Sounds more of a conventional wisdom to me than fact.
".After that leaders like Mayawati makes statements like "UP to Jhanki hai maharashtra abhi baaki hai""
Mayawati has made this in reference to wining dalit votes. She wanst to become Prime minister not chief minister of maharashtra. Up has around 24% of Dalit population. Maharashtra has 11% dalits and 10% muslims. So it is a good vote bank to target for her. She is doing same in Southern States also and many other north states. So what makes you think that her solgan is about some sort of UP war on Maharshtra????
"Abu Asim Azmi threatens to import Lathi wala goondas from AzamGarh.Why? because they have take the silence of common maharashtrian as their weakness."
Abu Azmi has 10% muslims (around 1 crore) of Maharshtra in Mind. I dont think 10% muslims of maharashtra can trust MNS and Shiv sena..or can they??? SO why blame Abu Ajmi!! He is simialr to what Raj Thakeray is.
"People from bihar have faced more worst reactions in Assam & Nagaland where they were brutally killed in large nos."
So you mean to say that since others are mindless, marathis should also become mindless!!! What sort of logic is that my friend!! Assam and Nagaland have complex problems due to tribal population and infilteration of Bangaldeshi Muslims and Musims from Bihar. They have porous borders with hostile countries which has created even bigger problems
"Maharashtra wants to make Mumbai like Shanghai,We only could end up like PATNA"
Very True. If we show goondagardi like we showed this week, surely we will become Patna or worse than that.
@ sandeshp Bhai
True, I dont udnerstand what you mean by mhani. But I dont have to think why is tat so . I know. I have poor language skills. I could learn english after struggling for 10 years because I had to speak to my customers. And then I tried learning Kanada but couldnt go beyond few sentences. Same with German and French.. I wish I could learn 10 languages, but alas I am an ordinary mortal.
"BTW if you remove the cover from your eyes you will not need to be scared and stay undercover :-)"
I am undercover becuase Indians have to be scared these days. They are in minorities. Everybody is tamil, marathi, muslims, hindu, dalit, lohar and what not.
@UnderCover
If Abu Asim Azmi in his right can threaten with people from Azamgarh,Mayawati can claim maharashtra for whatever reasons
,Laloo can give railway jobs of maharashtra to people from Bihar,Vaiko can feel for tamil being hurt in Sri Lanka why cant Raj Thackeray stand up for his local issues.
@punchtantra
Since you so desperatley want to believe and in fact have already believed that Raj T is all good and his tactics and all fair, nobody in world can budge you from that.
You have not even understood my arguments on Mayawati and Azmi and you are merely saying that since everybody is turning mad around you so you should also turn mad.... wow great logic buddy...go ahead. Do that. Best of luck
Let us all of us do that and have a cvil war. It will be fun. First Hindus can kill Muslims..then High caste hindus and kill dalits..then we..may be We should fight along language or no...may be we should fight on Muhhalla level...
And I was leaving...so Bye again...
i suggest you go and read Mein Kampf again friend.. but this time try to go beyond what is said by the man and try to find out what created the man he turned out to be
let me give you two words. you can google it up. 'Versailles treaty'. then try and understand what caused world war 1. and while doing so try not to forget that the british imperialist empire nearly covered half the globe at the time while the german empire covered just about 3-4 countries in africa
by the by also note that india got its freedom in 1947 thanks in small part to the activities of Herr Hitler. he nearly brought england too its knees in world war 2. a nearly bankrupt and war torn england then faced mutiny by the royal indian navy (which incidentally also started in mumbai) and other branches of the royal indian military. no imperliast power can hope to rule a country without control over its military. but i am sure you already knew that from reading Mein Kampf right :-)
Tata
if after Kargil war India went to Pakistan tour n they came here,den Dhoni n all r own countrymen, importantly,Raj was not against North Indians only the Bhaiyas,even Rajasthan comes in North,but Raj praise them for there contribution in Mumbai's development!!!
Hi Helo, Sorry for commenting on artical directly since I was unware about it. Henceforth sure I will not make such silly mistake.
Subh Dipawali to Marathi Katta............
Hello Sahil,
it was nice to see your comment. I agree with Mr. Thackeray that jobs should be given to local people but I completely disagree with the way he has taken. Why don't he work towards raising issues of electricity shortage which is driving out companies from maharastra?

I Think the author asked " Will Dhoni be allowed to play in Mumbai?"
Yes, he will be, provided that he go back, and not try steal a local's job. Nobody is trying to stop anybody to come and play in Maharashtra. the Anguish is only against the migrants who steal Jobs here on lower wages.
neemarathi, very nice. You say that "Anguish is only against the migrants who steal Jobs here on lower wages."
Why only low wages? And by the way, people who work on low wages are often people who don't have jobs but do sundry works like coolies, drivers, lifters, etc. etc
And why this anguise only against low wage earners, who are often low educated and poor!!! Are you against poor because they can so easily be targeted?
Would you try to send Dhoni back if he buys a nice flat in south Mumbai , the way he has done in Chennai??
Dear Chankya, your Nickname is opposite to what your thinking ability is.
Lower Wages doesn't mean "Low" wages. you are taking the meaning as per your convenience. You need to read both Chanakyaniti and "Rapidex English Speaking course".
Lower Wages term can be applied on upper limit of salaries too.
