Hearing angry Marathis tell me that they freed me is a revelation because I thought India got independent in 1947 and Marathis didn’t play any special role in it. Maharashtrian history starts in 1700 and ends in 1850. Complete amnesia abt anything before or after that.
@Mi_Marathi__ Mumbai is not Marathi city, Marathis snatched it to merge it into Maharashtra
It was Bombay - The hub of businessmen and workers! Manus gave it name “Mumbai”
Marathi cities are Kolhapur, Ratnagiri, and Nashik
How about Marathis Vacant Mumbai and do this Language ka lodu war in Nagpur or Nashik!
Mumbai is built by Sweat of Immigrants Not Bhau/Manus! Better pack your bag and leave to Shanivarwada
Forcing people to do bullshit things when they're just trying to feed their family is easy right?
Supporting stupid stuff instead of standing against it is easy, I get it boy!!
Why Maharashtra not teaching Hindi to their people and
Imposing marathi learning on everyone
Learn something for Gujarat
We have no language barrier here, you can speak whatever language you want to
We will communicate with you in hindi and english (even if it is broken)
And if you speaks in other languages which we don't understand then we use Google translate speaking mode and communicate with them easily.
Maharashtra really need to learn from us.
Your politician are ruining image of your state.
On top of that if you're working with people who are from US do you ask them to learn Marathi too? No right!! We talk in english! Why? Cause its a middle ground where both the parties are comfortable
As a Marathi, my take on this auto-walas and Marathi fiasco:
If you're living in another state for a decade to earn your livelihood, knowing the local language enough to communicate with people is basic common sense. It's not that hard.
Your job literally involves driving an auto and interacting with Marathi people every day. So why not learn a few simple Marathi phrases that actually help you do your job?
Nobody is asking you to become fluent in Marathi. But showing arrogance toward locals and refusing to even make an effort will only create more resentment and, eventually, more hate.

@busynesswoman_ There’s a girl on my timeline, who’s ranting about a guy from her office that he communicates with his mother. What is she?
Insecure??
Orphan?!
