When I initially thought of creating my blog, i thought I would use it to express my thoughts and feelings on different issues & topics. Not just writing about my day to day life or like a diary/journal. However I didn't do that, as I dont blog that much. But this might be a start...
I heard about Raj Thackeray, a politician from Mumbai talking about lots of stuff today. He recently became a controversial political figure in India due to his rhetorical speech against people from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar; this includes statements against actor Amitabh Bachchan and the Mumbai Police Officer. He blamed north Indians immigration into the state of Maharastra as the reason for a shortage of jobs for the local Maharashtrians.
I really don't understandthat how to understand this whole concept. I mean, if today Mumbai says that so called outsiders should not come there. So they should stay in there own states. Now if people move to big cities (like Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Patna, Ranchi, Bhopal etc) in there own states, the people from those cities may accuse them of the same, that why are they immigrating to there cities and stealing there jobs and places. And further they might be accused of the same if they move to there near by towns for better opportunities. Or at the worst, if people move even to a village outside there village (or native place) they would be accused and treated as immigrants. Afterall once you leave your native place where you were born, you are an immigrant anywhere. So... i guess we should just stick to place where we were born and survive there as we can, because we are not supposed to move out... RIGHT?? Just be a "KOOP-MANDOOK" (famous sanskrit word which means, a well's frog who does not knows the outside world).
Delhi, Mumbai, Calcutta and many other metros and major cities have always been a target for people to move to. They get better job oportunities, better money and better life which helps the people to grow and prosper. Then it helps there native places to grow & develop and in turn it helps in our countries growth and development too. I mean people growth is country growth. Also it helps these metros & cities to develop as well, because these people who move there do a lot for the places. Afterall they treat it as there home, infact it becomes there home.
Anyways, people move all across India to any and many places. We are a country of diversity and we see people from all over country, settled and established all over country. And we have never heard such complaints form any other part of India. Not even south India, where the cuture seems a bit diffrent to some people and they think its differnt. But it's one country and we all live and prosper together. People do have some language or cultural barriers some times but we always take them off by the unity and bonding we have of being one.
Then why do we hear this in Mumbai from a person who is not a representative of Mumbai in any sens. He's not the government, he's not an elected representative, he's nothing. I don't know why are we even paying attention to anthing like this. I don't think that this is the coplain or pain of a commom mumbaikar or marathi person. They are so loving and nice people, they are all our fellow Indians and we have been together for ages. With love, with prosperity and with unity. Our Army or defense forces, our Indian cricket team, our film industry, our national government or any and everything consistes of people from all over the country and we excel together as ONE!!!
Why are we even hearing to a person who's not making any sense? Why are we even paying any attention to him? This should never be made a politcal issue and its ridiculous the way politicians and news channels are trying to give it a political color. I was glad to see the support we got from people Like Mr Bachchan or even Amar Singh and some others. I was not very glad to see that the Maharshtra govt or maybe some Marathi leadres have not come clearly in opposition to this. But it's not time to be glad or unglad. It's time to come together and tell this world and these people that we united, we are one and we dont pay attention to these stupid concerns. We have bigger and better concerns for our people & our nation and we'll take care of all of them together.
As my mom was saying today, "if we won't be able to accept our own countrymen and not let them prosper & develop in our own country; how do we expect that from other countries and other people all over the world". We blame western countries of treating us as thirld world or racism or not letting us grow, we expect them to be fair. Are we not doing the same to our own people and our own country???
Anyways, I guess I have said something (not enough ofcourse) and it shows what i think. Please let me know about your views about this too. I'll sign-off for now. So please keep blogging & keep reading my blogs (& COMMENTING as well please). This is RAHUL again saying, Good Bye & Good Luck!!!
Jai Bharat, Jai Hind!!!
