Gandhi was addressing an assembly of college students organized by the National Students Union of India in the Pimpri-Chinchwad suburb of Pune.

“Raj is in the habit of using threatening language of driving out the people of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar from Maharashtra. However his voice is very limited. And particularly his roar, applause and voice gets response restricted to Mumbai only,” Rahul said.

Rahul, being a part of the ruling governament., should Go to Mumbai, and say what he has to say about Raj in Mumbai, and address his words directly to Raj and not the students in Pune.

Can India, claim to be the biggest democracy, when a member of the ruling party admits that Raj is in the habit of using threatening language of driving out the people of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar from Maharashtra, and can do nothing to stop him.

If Raj's voice is limited only to Mumbai, why poeple are being driven out of Maharastra.? How can a citizen in a democratic country not only use threatening language publicly, but act on it without any action being taken by the state or the central Govt against him..???

With regard to the Thackeray's famiy, ( Bal Thackeray, Uddhav Thackeray, and Raj Thackeray ) they are mentally sick and do things in their subconscious minds. They will be people who will break India for just a dirty street politics. If Maharashtrians drive Indians out of Mumbai and Rest of Maharashtra, what will happen if rest of India do the same with them.

Well, at times Govt has to keep mum in the larger interest of the country. Every one including Raj knows that Bombay is Economic hub and so Govt is happy with the chunk of taxes they get from the state. This is the reason why they allow these dogs to bark while they reap the fruits. It is just simple maths.
