Alag naam magar problem same same..



People from the state of Bihar and U.P. seem to be facing the same problem yet again in and this time in Maharashtra. Fondly or not so fondly called the BHAIYA'S in Maharshtra.. DESWALI's in Northeast specifically assam seem to be wanted out always.. and these are the two states i know about.. I guess they face the same demarcation across the country..

Well is there an end to the Bihari Bhagao Andolan across the country..i atleast seem to see no end to it.. I was born and brought up in Assam.. where regionality is imbibed in every assamese's mind and bihari's (as well as Bengali's) seem to be their greatest threats .. wonder why?? inane number of attacks on migrants specially bihari's and bengali's have been a trend in Assam over innumerable number of years now.. I remember in school telling my dad how i felt like an NRI would feel in the USA maybe.. i did not belong.. to the point where even my closest friends till date dont shy away from commenting on my origin inspite of the fact that to me my origin has been assam..

And now it seems to be a trend in Mumbai as well.. In either of these states don't quiet get the rationality behind kicking these poor souls out because a majority of the population or maybe almost all are actually the labour class.. now thats maybe an added advantage for these states.. Yes bihari's are supposed to be taking on to the UPSC and all those seats as well but what i dont understand is its a free society.. whoever works hard for it gets it.. Assam has always been the Quota loving state and even amongst my own friends i hardly know any who have managed to venture out of the state on merit.. its either hard core donation or the grand ASSAM QUOTA (and that's a back up they always know they have therefore pushing them all the more to not bother puting in their 100%)..

Even with Mumbai.. the city is ruled by the rich gujarati business community above any other community but they add to the economy monetarily for maharashtra therefore they are never targetted..why isnt an Ambani targetted for building his great refinery in jamnagar and adding to gujarat rather than maharashtra.. the service class or the poor ones are always the soft target because maybe their contribution is too puny for any great importance to anyone..

how does people coming from outside have to do anything with your capabilities.. i m sure marathi's can also read and write as much as any one else can.. therefore something called geting a job with one's own merit seems to have gone out of everyone's head.. what do poor taxi walla's have to do in this.. if they are kicked out today i think 90% of mumbai transport in terms of cabs will be a full stop creating an even more confusion in the city.. they aren't any harm infact they are just an added help in the city infrastructure..

Well there never was any logic behind the raj thakeray's of every state in this country.. be it the ulfa in assam or anywhere else.. it's few people who want their agenda for political or monetary purposes and its the common man and in this case biggies like Amitabh Bacchan who have to suffer this nuisance..
