Raj Thackeray - The Imbecile
Left - Raj Thackeray (Looks more like a dacoit from the Chambal)
Right: Rahul Raj (Looks so simple, his was a reaction and did not deserve to be murdered)
On 23.10.2008, I had written the following on our blog
I was talking of the imbecile, known as Raj Thackeray.
Students from Bihar going to appear in railway exams were beaten up by his gang of supporters and later on he went on TV stating that this would be the treatment of anybody who came to Maharashtra for jobs.
This is the unity of India for which Sardar Patel worked tirelessly.
The Congress Party which in power in Maharashtra would have glossed over this aberration of Raj Thackeray but it would have been at the cost of losing the support of Lalu Yadav who threatened the Congress to take action against the culprit otherwise….. The rest was left unsaid. The congress has taken action. They have arrested Raj Thackeray and filed 25 cases against him. Cases, which should have been filed two years ago, are now being filed. That should keep the Thackeray from causing mischief for quite some time. Did I hear better late than never?
Earlier too this same person had made derogatory statements against the people of Bihar and UP during their Chhat festival. However, at that time Lalu did not take it seriously as there was no violence.
But, what I do not understand is how the courts of the land can grant bail to a person who is inciting violence and it has all the records from television channels. Our courts are too lenient and are partly to blame for all the trouble going on all over India.
These persons should be kept under solitary confinement to cool them down, whether it is Raj Thackeray or anybody from any party.
Naturally there would be repercussions in Bihar.
Trains have been stopped in Bihar, passengers told to get out, and bogies have been set on fire.
The government is trying to control a riot like situation
With temperatures in Bihar rising high and the Biharis being known for their hot-headedness, I am surprised this person is still alive.
It seems that people from Bihar have reacted as I feared they would.
Unfortunately, being simple people, Rahul failed.
I am sure the next time they will succeed. After all Robert Bruce tried 6 times to drive out the British. He succeeded only on the 7 th attempt.
I would would be happy if this vermin was exterminated.
Such persons should not have any place in Indian society.
The MNS. People behind the attack on the Biharis issued the following statement.
MNS general secretary Nitin Sardesai said: “The incident shows there is a security threat to Rajsaheb and yet the government has lowered his cover from category Z to Y.”
I would advise the government to remove all his security.
Such persons should not be provided security by the state
AS YOU SOW, SO SHALL YOU REAP
Some boys may be asking why I, a mild person, talks so vehemently.
War is bad. It brings destruction and death.
But, standing on the battlefield when Arjun expressed doubts on fighting his own brethern, Lord Krishna advised him that at the moment your Dharama is to fight and if you do not fight, it is Adharma.
What Raj Thackeray is doing is Adharam, and some Arjun will rise to fell this Duryodhan, otherwise his vitriolic speeches will continue unabated.
His uncle has ruled Maharashtra using this weapon and he plans to use it again.
So, if the state will not rein him in, somebody else will have to do it.

I have received some comments re: this post which I could not allow publication since the language was unacceptable.
We in school were never even allowed to use the word "damn". We used to use dash instead.
While we appreciate your anger against Raj, we cannot allow use of unacceptable words.
I would like to inform everybody, that comments are moderated, so we have to be proper in what we say.
