Raj Thackeray and the Marathi Manoos

Indians are so confusing. Every one wants a heroes that runs through hails of bullets without getting hit, finally killing the villain and rescuing the heroine. Heroes that perform seemingly impossible task. Perhaps tracing back to the origin of beliefs in Gods, that Gods / demigods would take birth on this earth to rid of evil doers. The Indians themselves are not going to do anything but just suffer, suffer and suffer.

I have no problems in people suffering on their own will, but why the hell they get to follow leaders who do nothing but make ass of the people? Why invite more suffering?

Take this Raj Thackeray. He is fighting for Marathi Manoos, and he says if North Indians have to stay in Mumbai, they have to respect the Marathi Manoos!

Here is the lessons for people who follow Raj Thackeray and hope that he would deliver them from god knows what -

1. Mumbai, the city named after goddess Mumba, which is presiding deity. The temple, Mumbadevi is run by North Indians, with North Indians worshipping her and even the priest are North Indian. Didn't the North Indian accepted Marathi culture?

2. Mumbai as a state, the original inhabitants of Mumbai are Kolis and not Marathis, so a Marathi is equally an outsider compared to an North Indian. Its Kolis who should be getting the benefit rather than a Marathi who is pushing himself around.

3. Raj Thackeray is an man who wants to gather the support of Marathi Manoos to win election. He had to target one community to express solidarity with Marathi Manoos. The UPites and Biharis are bigger and the weakest organised community, what could be better target. Why not Gujaratis who have reservation for Gujuratis in colleges such as KJ Somaiya, NMIMS and other reputed institutions. Dare he do it, and Mumbai has lost his gloss and so also his pocket money. And the poor people feel that driving out North Indians would help.

4. Indians, we have one Bread for every 10 people. We have bastard netas, who forget about arranging for 10 bread, do not have the guts to produce 5 Breads, so that no body is hungry. The only way these assholes can thrive are by making people blame each other for their state and hence fight each other.

5. India as a country has provided 4800 crores for farmers in Maharashtra. Does Raj Thackeray has the guts to question why the death has not stopped? No he is equally a partner in similar crimes.

6. Raj Thackeray wants to sell land to someone at Bazar Rates to start a School for Marathi Manoos. This person does not even wants to donate the land for free. Cool.

7. Bhojpuri films are run in theatres owned by Marathi Manoos, and the entertainment tax is gathered by their so call Marathi Government.

People kick the butt of such Netas who divide and thrive. We need leaders who can generate job opportunities, leaders who have vision, leaders who are intelligent and not fools.

What I learned!!

Maine pandit sune, maine padri sune, maine maulvi sune, maine granthi sune,
Din dukhio ke mukh se teri awaaz na suni, mere sunne ka kya fayada

Maine Kashi dekhi, kaaba dekhi, Maine Jersusalem dekhi, Maine Harminder Sahib dekhi
Har prani mein tujhe dekha nahin, mere dekhne ka kya fayada

Toone Masoomiyat bheji, maine haivaniyat sikhai,
Teri dharti ki hai kya maine halaat banai

Is dharti pe main dhang se reh na saka,
Tere ghar pe mein kya khak rahoonga.

Shiksha Abhiyaan - What a Shame!

There is a ad running on TV these days - "Shiksha" and the patron is Renuka Sahane. The advertisement is on the behalf of ITC who coyly through

Renuka Sahane puts forward an idea - Buy ITC Products, the part of the proceedings would go to Education of children.

This is one of what I call blue collared day light robbery, in which you play with people emotions to dump your products on their head. Why don't these ITC guys come up with something say 5% of employee salary would go to the Shiksha abhiyan, 10% of the profit would go to Shiksha Abhiyan.

No they won't do it. Who would like to pay from their pockets? And what better way to get the money from gullible customers who would buy your products too, thinking they are contributing for the society.

This is the bane of our society, that voluntarily we won't take any action for poor. Some idiots have to come to scene and make use of this fact and rob us. What if each and every company claims that part of the proceeding would go to the Shiksha abhiyaan? Whom will you buy the products from?

And what part of the price are they giving out to the abhiyaan?

Say a product X from a company Y costs 10 Rs, ideally. These ITC guys charge 12 Rs for it and just make a donation of Rs 0.25 to the abhiyaan and pocket RS 1.75 for themselves?

Transparency is required in such cases. People are requested not to feel gullible and help such shameless people. No way are people benefited from such bastardly act, but only the pockets of such robbers get filled.

Say no to ITC products.
