“Aamchi Mumbai”

Well! I don’t care if its Mumbai or Bombay as it has been called since Portuguese arrived here. But the kind of vicious campaign Bal Thackrey and Co. has initiated about Mumbai, should alert every Indian.
I can’t believe this is happening to Mumbai, a dream city of mine a few years ago. I still remember the excitement of going to Mumbai first time during my IIT counselling which exceeded the excitement of passing JEE itself. Its being taken away from us. Well! not yet but you never know in a democracy.

Most Indian love to call Mumbai- “Bombay” and these are common folklore far away from the political sensitivity of the issue. Mumbai sounds less appealing to me and the rest of the country. However nobody flinched when our beloved “Bombay” became Mumbai. Who cares!

Now it seems our beloved Bombay is Bala Thackrey’s personal property where only Marathi’s are allowed to enter and stay. Its amazing to even think that this man is openly dictating Mumbai at his terms and dictating the most dangerous idea that has been thrust upon our democracy.” Mumbai for Marathi”. Lick my ass Mr. Bal Thackrey.

Well! I have no idea how furious I am with this happening in my beloved country.   As citizen of this great  nation which is on verge of discovering its lost potential again, we must stand united against these selfish elements.

I hope we see India wide united stand on the  Mumbai issue.

Separatist Politics!
