Take action against Raj’s anti-Bihari comment

This is not the first time that MNS Chief Raj Thackeray has spoken in a non-sensical, foolish and unconstitutional way, which amounts to anti-national, by branding Biharis as infiltrators and threatening them to drive out of Mumbai. Thackerays must know that Biharis have lived in Mumbay for years and contributed immensely to its development. They are living there as Indians and will continue to settle in Mumbai. And what to talk of Raj Thackeray, no power on this earth can prevent any Indian from settling anywhere in India. Constitution of India and its parliamentary democracy have given permission to all Indians to settle anywhere in the nation they like and earn their livelihood. India is a Union of states consisting of 28 states and 7 Union Terrories. Raj Thackeray has spoken against all Hindi speaking Indians, including Biharis a number of times in the past and the state Government of the Congress Party has never taken any action against him. It means that the Maharashtra Government of Congress Party either dare not act against him or has tacit agreement with him. Thackeray is speaking against Biharis times and again to polarise the Maharashtrian voters in favour of his political outfit MNS. Even rat considers itself as lion in its hole. His behaviour is similar to it. If he has guts to speak against the Hindi-speaking people, he should come to national capital Delhi and speak against them, including Biharis. Undoubtedly, he will learn a lesson that he would never forget in life. Has he ever thought about the lakhs of Maharashtrians living outside the state in India? If the same speech is delivered to insult them, how will he react. His comments against Biharis are narrow and reflect clearly his anti-national behaviour. Chief Minister Prithvi Raj Chavan must take stern action against him for his lunatic comment against Biharis. Raj Thackeray must also know that Biharis are fearless and bold enough to retaliate any attack on them in a non-violent way. The transfer of Mumbai Police Commissioner for the vandalism of Amar Jawan Jyoti at Azad Maidan on the demand of Raj Thackeray at the massive meeting, which he held after the protest to show solidarity with the Muslim victims of Assam and Myanmar riots, has emboldened him on one hand and exposed the timidity of Chavan Govt to act against him on the other. Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh has rightly said that the Thackeray family itself belonged to Bihar and had settled in Dhar in Western Madhya Pradesh from where they migrated to Mumbai.It is established as per law that whenever the police from a state goes to another state to arrest somebody, it has to inform the local police and then produce the arrested person in local court from where he can be taken elsewhere only after getting transit remand. Mumbai police did not follow the established law and picked up suspect vandalizing Amar Jyoti from Simarhi of Bihar. Chief Secretary of Bihar has raised the issue with the Maharashtra government. What is wrong in it that Raj Thackeray has commented in a very unconstitutional way against Biharis.
