Problems same everywhere |

In New Zealand,the original local community of Maoris is against immigrants.Why? They feel NZ is losing its identity to migrants and of course, all good jobs are lapped up by immigrants mainly Indians.Recently, NZ has introduced Maori learning programs at workplaces.
U must have heard of stories where US youngsters were haraasing Indians working in call centres as they were against shifting call centres to India and losing their jobs to Indians.
Nowhere in the world,people tolerate when their jobs and/or cultures are under threat. So, in Mumbai too, it is natural for Maharashtrians to feel threatened by non-Maharashtrians and I don't think there is anything wrong.However,the way this issue is approached is totally unacceptable. Instead of finding peaceful solutions to the problem, the politicians are using it for their selfish motives.
As we can clearly see Raj Thackeray who has done nothing so far for Maharashtrians, is only tarnishing our image by attacking poor workers.And what do we achieve by doing that?Are we showing off our 'power' by beating up ordinary people who come here for bread and butter?No,we only worsen the problems by violence and create tensions between communitites and destroy the peace of our beautiful city.
I am sure once Raj Thackeray achieves his goal, he will move on and will look for some other agenda.Remember the Shivsena pattern that started with Madrasis??
Shalaka is right, the way things are handled, there is hardly any differnce between AlQuida and well...
Have we really run out of any peaceful solutions to the problem?
Love Mumbai,Jai Maharashtra and Jai Hind!
