Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Mumbai by Train was a slap on the face of the Shiv Sena and they offered the other cheek to Mumbaikars who slapped them even harder and released the film MNIK and dared the Sena to stop them.
Mumbai does not belong to the Shiv Sena and their uneducated unemployed goons who have spoiled the image of Maharashtra to the world. I could not help but laugh at Sanjay Raut’s statement on one side of the screen of a news channel claiming that the protest was successful while on the same screen their goons were shown being beaten and thrashed and pulled up like plucked chickens while people entered the cinema halls to watch MNIK.
History has shown that Mumbai has and can never progress under the leader ship of the Shiv Sena and their unemployed goons. They are communal to the core .Show me one single Shiv Sainik who is academically qualified to lead Maharashtra. Shiv Sena is full of double standards and have no ideologies.
• While they want SRK to apologize and coolly ignore Amitabh who was sharing centre stage with Pakistani Poets. Mr Manohar Joshi – are you listening?
• Bal Thackeray at one time was against the Gandhi’s for their dynastic rule while to day the ShivSena is following the footsteps of Gandhi by handing over reins to Udhav and he in turn is preparing his son to take over.
• They promote Marathi while they send their children to English Medium School.
While Manohar Joshi went on air to say what SRK said was wrong and he should apologize to Bal Thackeray or we will not let the movie be released. This man was at one time the CM of Maharashtra. Can Maharashtra progress under such a person? What happened Mr Manohar Joshi ? Neither did SRK apologize nor could you stop the screening. It is a shame that the Thackeray’s instigated their followers to damage national property and hurt innocent people while their leaders sat at home like silent spectators watching their goons being beaten up. What is the difference between the Shiv Sena and the Terrorists? Terrorists create havoc internationally and the Shiv Sainiks create havoc in Maharashta terrorizing innocent people. Who is Bal Thackeray and why should SRK apologize to him. The Mumbaikars do not want SRK to apologize and have infact come out in full support and burnt effigies of Bal Thakeray outside cinema halls. Mahatma Gandhi led the movement from the front and ended up being imprisoned many times while the Thakerays have never even seen the insides of a jail but I must add here that besides the Thackeray’s all other Shivsainik’s keep visiting the jail often as if a second home.
I must also add that the Mumbai Police have done a commendable job under the leadership of Mr R R Patil . The CM Mr Ashok Chavan faced the situation like a true Mumbaikar. I am not happy that the 2 persons who on camera – one who threatened to burn SRK and Mr Raut who threatened the CM have not been arrested. I am also not happy that the judiciary is silent on the happenings. The judiciary should make Shiv Sena pay for all the damage that they have caused to property.
I am also not happy at the electronic media for they have not played the role of a catalyst and have infact fanned the fire between the state govt and the Shiv Sena by carrying statements from one party to another and literally bad mouthed the Maharashtra Police.
Religion divides a country. Let us pledge to be Indian first.
