There were hardly any marathi people in business, trade, all domination by Gujrathi's and marwaris. You will be amazed by the stories marathi business men from tht era share, like even renting a shop in gujju dominated area like laming ton road was very very tough. In whitecollar jobs, Educated south Indians were getting preference.Am not saying he moved a magic wand and everything changed, am just saying he gave some hope, some direction, some small steps which led to Marathi comeback. As for the Australian issue, or anywhere else, i am always in support of local people first. Then comes any other. That doesn't mean total domination , i mean only "Preference"...otherwise then why do we have reservation? Quotas? That is also a sign of 'preferential treatment' right?<br />For the riot part, i agree some acts were unwarranted, but somebody has to take a stand. Somebody has to dirty his hands.Siddheshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788115902009994653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386504209260507818.post-62060694506378940432012-12-05T02:30:01.259+05:302012-12-05T02:30:01.259+05:30@ayyo,

Even the partition riots, did not affect Bombay as majorly as it did affect Punjab or Bengal. Why, even the Gujarat riots did not spread to Bombay! <br />Bombay was above all this. Why did the demolition of the Mosque in UP cause a riot in Bombay? We are 86% Hindu and 11% Muslim. How can he claim to have 'saved' us from Muslims? We decimated them. Look at the casualty figures. Bombay burned. It resulted into the retaliatory 1993 serial blasts and numerous terror attacks on OUR city since then. it has divided our people irreparably. How can you support such a person and claim to talk about National Unity at the same time?<br /><br />You are right. Usne badal diya humare shehar ko, humare logon ko. But not for the good. Bombay was a carefree spinster. Mumbai is an oppressed Afghani prostitute!

Problems faced by Marathis (Only Bombaywallas) are the same ones that Australians face. Why do you criticise them? We are the Bhaiyyas and Madrasis of the World.<br />The same issue is being harped over in Tamil Nadu, Bengal (Language), Karnataka (Anti Migrants) but they are really non Issues!<br /><br />If he really fought for the rights of the Marathis, then why today, even after 45 years after the inception of the party do we still see the same struggle? Why, after so many years, do we have another party (MNS) that claims to do just the same? The reality is, that this is just stoking of the pride, the Language pride through passionate speeches. Ever wondered why do his speeches arouse anger in the Marathi manoos, why does he always spew venom about someone or the other and rarely does he make you weep tears of joy.. or praise someone..!! Because politics of hate is more powerful than the power of love!!Ayyappanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03303674609374590723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386504209260507818.post-15914798474805754872012-12-04T14:06:36.218+05:302012-12-04T14:06:36.218+05:30@Ketki
