During the oath-taking ceremony today on the first day of the state Assembly’s inaugural session post the election of the new government, MNS MLA Ramesh Banjle snatched the mike as SP legislator Abu Azmi began reading the oath in Hindi. The tussle did not end there with other MNS legislators joining in and shouting slogans against Azmi. Ram Kadam and Shishir Kunde even exchanged blows with Azmi, with Kadam seen live on television slapping and hitting him on the chest and shoulders. Was he doing any crime against India? Yes definitely - he was favouring the most common language of India "Hindi", irrespective of the threat given by the MNS chief Raj Thakrey to take the oath in Marathi. Are we living in a banana republic? Who is he to give the instruction to the people to choose their language? Hindi is the Universal language of India which connects its citizen. Doesn't they (MNS hooligans ) listen the Hindi music, don't they like Hindi actors? As per the constitutional right provided to us, we can live any where for our livelihood and we can speak any language as per the choice and if any body is restricting anyone from their fundamental right, he should be punished as per the law of the land. Raj Thakrey is not above the law, as whole nation knows Thakrey family has done enormous damage to the national integrity by the name of south-north,Hindi- Marathi, Hindu-Muslim etc. Now, Raj Thakrey is spitting venom against North Indians and Hindi language.
Native speakers of Hindi dialects between them account for 41% of the Indian population (2001 Indian census). As defined in theConstitution of India, Hindi is one of the two official languages of communication (English being the other) for India's federal government and is one of the 22 scheduled languages specified in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution.Hindi is the most widely spoken of India's official languages. It is spoken mainly in northern states of Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Uttar-Pradesh
, Madhya Pradesh , Chhattisgarh, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand and Bihar. It is second major language in Andaman and Nicobar Islands and it is also spoken alongside with regional languages like Punjabi, Gujarati, Marathi or Bengali throughout north and central India. Hindi is also understood in other parts of India as well as in the neighbouring countries of Nepal, Bangladesh and Pakistan. Native speakers of Hindi dialects account for 48% of the Fiji population. This includes all people of Indian ancestry including those whose forefathers emigrated from regions in India where Hindi was not generally spoken. As defined in the Constitution of Fiji (Constitution Amendment Act 1997 (Act No. 13 of 1997), Section 4(1), Hindi is one of the three official languages of communication (English and Fijian being the others). Section 4(4)(a)(b)(c)(d) also states that 4) Every person who transacts business with: (a) a department; (b) an office in a state service; or (c) a local authority; has the right to do so in English, Fijian, or Hindustani, either directly or through a competent interpreter.

We respect the other languages of India either they are Marathi or Malyalam. We live in a diversified country so we should respect each others language,religion, costume and festivals irrespective of caste, gender and state. Whatever is happening in the name of Marathi Manoos is not good for the nation as this will weaken the pillar of India. Although language is means of communication so don't play with the language just think about the well being of people, so that nation get developed. MNS is an untouchable community of India.
