Where is Raj Thackeray?’

by Santosh Mishra on December 1, 2008

raj thackeray 300x168 Where is Raj Thackeray?’

Where is Raj Thackeray and his “gang”? Why didn’t he come forward to save Mumbai, when Pakistani attackers terrorized Mumbaikars? And why didn’t he stop the commandos and Military officials, who where involved the flush out operation, belonging to Bihar, UP and Karnataka?

The reply may be simple; he must be in hideout to save himself and family. The thing is quite clear, politicians from Mumbai have proved to be a pathetic lot in this worst crisis.

And that’s the reason behind the resignation of Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh and his Deputy R R Patil. Patil’s stand was quite pathetic, in which he termed the Mumbai attack “simple.”

Ironically MNS chief Raj Thackeray, who claimed to own the city, has been completely missing and reportedly hiding in his house.

It’s time to think beyond politics and forward to save the great nation. Is anyone listening?

Everybody talks, no one listens.
I have it from an authentic forward that he is hiding in Karachi after returning with one of the people who came in from there to help him in breaking India apart.

i completly agree…all politicians are the same….cowards and without a spine…

I thing mr Rak thakre is kind of that cat for which it had been told like ” apni gali me billi bhi sher hoti hai ” he is using his power only on poor man and just to divide india. we can say he is also a terrorist who is dividing india. Now when time came for some action at that time this mouse could not even come out of his home for support of his own marathi manus….wow such a great politician is he….i request to all my marathi brothers to wake up and to face reality…

that he is just playing politics for the gain of vote…true leader will be that who will think for more developments rather than this kind of sepration of mumbai…stupid thakre family

Except Maharashtrians and specially Thackerays, everyone is listening. Shameless bunch of characters.

Abhay December 1, 2008 at 10:53 pm

People who have lost their lives are neither “Marathi manoos” nor “North Indian”. They were simply Indians. Be it NSG commandos or Mumbai police, their focus was to save Mumbai which belongs to India and not only to “Marathi manoos”.

Thanks to this dastardly incident, its clear politicians like Raj Thackrey are not loyal to anyone- neither to Mumbai nor to India. Else why he did not come or sent his MNS activists to die for their Mumbai which they claim as their “private property”.

Though its too big a price to pay for- but thank you terrorists- Raj (and other politicians) are exposed.

pooja sidhu December 1, 2008 at 10:55 pm

Where is the so called Mr Raj Thackray!!!
Hiding behind daddy or wife’s saree ,while she sends disgusting ,lowly sms’s to people!!!Either he is not man enough or just tooooooooooooooooo scared t oface people from Bombay!!!Bombay belongs to India first,then it is a part of maharashtra!!
It does not belong to losers like the Thackrays!!!

The politicians in India, in general, are very narrow minded and cannt really think out of the box. R R Patil saying ‘its a big city and such things happen’ … Deshmukh taking his actor son and Verma to the terror site .. kerla CM insulting the brave soldier … home minister patil having no idea where all the terrorists have striked in the city… Tackaray saying all those died were Marathis … my good god …

I was also listening to Pak media on that … and they were saying India cooked all this up, just to wage war on Pakistan, just like USA did it on Afganistan. Mind you people, Kargil was enough for India to wage full fledged war on Pakistan, but we kept it in control … COME ON !

is paar ya us paar

Well said… the politicians like Raj Thackrey are best at creating unrest during times of peace to grab attention in the hope of grabbing votes. But their inaction in the state of crisis has demonstrated how much they actually care about Mumbai and Mumbai waalas…

luke December 1, 2008 at 11:30 pm

his target is poor helpless vulnareble breadearners on the streets of mumbai he is ruining the lives & future of his young supporters by making them goondas @nikammas the dependents & parents of these goondas are going to curse likes of thakareys

Kalpana December 1, 2008 at 11:32 pm

No one should let him be till he gives every Indian an explanation. Where did he go missing when “his” mumbai was burning? Did he even come forward to donate blood?

vin December 2, 2008 at 12:03 am

Shame on Thackerays for trying to politicise this national tragedy for thier selfish ends,where was Raj and Bal Thackeray when thier fellow country men were getting slaughtered in thier backyards and these bloody politicians shudnt forget JAWANS from all parts of India fought to save mumbaikars,people shud stop voting for such cowardly politicians.

RamanujaVR December 2, 2008 at 12:20 am

The whole issue about people like Raj Thackeray is very simple. Every time such people try to open their mouth in public from now on, the entire press should ask in unsion “Where were you and your people, when Mumbai was ransacked and ravaged by terrorists?” This should include all the Hindutva forces also. Where were they? That will definitely make them shut up once for all. Further, those Muslim leaders who talk about Pakistan in the same breathe when they talk about Kashmir should be asked to vacate the country and go to settle in Pakistan permanently. That should shut them up. Only the press can do this. Is the press game for it?

Subhashish Moitra December 2, 2008 at 12:25 am

I purely agree with the statement above. Where was Raj Thackeray when people were getting killed. It was very simple for him and his so called MNS gang to attack on those innocent people who came mumbai with some hope to give railway examination. Yes, those guys were unarmed and helpless, MNS could show their strength.. But where were they when those armed terriorits entered into the city.

This clearly says one terriorit helping another terriorist.

“Abhi Bahut gussa hai hamare undar.. Jo kahate the ki Mumbai hamara hai whoh he aaj gaddar nikle”

Jai Hind…

Raj Thackeray is no doubt a bogus & pompous man. He is making
regionalism a crucial issue which is very harmful to India’s unity. I’m a maratha myself & I’m proud to be one. It is because the real maratha respects other religions & people from different states to the highest extent. Raj Thackeray has no right to call himself as leader of marathi people because the true marathi people has no respect for him.

It is my sincere request to my fellow marathi people to come to their senses and boycott this Raj Thackeray.

Raj Thackerey you go in Hell………..!

Basavaraj December 2, 2008 at 12:54 am

This is not just internal damage to his state, Commands may be from all place…….Do you have any guarrantee there is no one from mumbai…?

Raj Tackrey atleast one person has tried to protest to get thier basic need in mumbai….
But No one is Bangalore,which is alreay occupied by telagu, tamil more than us(ALL kannadiga.

I have one little question to you all..

If you have not enough food to eat but some one is trying to get from you then do you keep quite without doing any thing…?

That why he was did…!!

Dont mix up the things which are completely unrelated …!!

kishore December 2, 2008 at 1:12 am

stop this bul shit comments on Raj, every body have his home think about that, don’t look inside the others home like begger, Raj knows his responsibility very well & he become the hero of maharashtra. think about you, your home,your state & then come to in our India

Patricia December 2, 2008 at 1:29 am

Where is this man??? I searched everywhere..under the table, benches, in the bush…he is no where to be found. Strange isn’t it ? for a man who keeps boasting.

We think he needs to talk a little less than usual and work. Leave politics Raj Thackeray..it is not for people like you.

Get a nine to five job , I think that will suit you JUST FINE :)

Sudhanshu Kumar December 2, 2008 at 1:32 am

I am appalled seeing Raj Thackeray politics of hatred. First of all Mumbai is a metropolitan city (happens to be in Maharashtra) so please quit saying that it is for marathy’s only. The truth is immigrants who came from different states has made the city grate. Bollywood is predominantly for hindi movies not marathy or gujrathi or any other language.

You and your uncle are equivalent KKK in US as you have started killing innocent people same way American’s killed millions of native indian’s and then black slaves.

Subramaniyan December 2, 2008 at 1:33 am

Thakre should understand the fact that mumbai is no were if other states of the india will not support Mumbai. All states are equally important for development of the nation if he objects this euality that means he will be the biggest looser and he is not doing good for india. More over during Mumbai attack all states were in shock and helped Mumbai to come over not only Mumbais’ citizen. The commandos has not throught that Mumbai is not his state they have given their 100% to save Mumbai otherwise Thakre won’t own Mumbai but the Tererist would have own Mumbai. So feel ashamed of your statements.

sanjay sett December 2, 2008 at 5:49 am

Pray, who should Raj Thackrey care? Neither Mr. Ratan Tata or Mr. Oberoi who suffered the most along with those in Nariman house were `Marathi Manoos’. Mr. Tata is a Parsi, Mr. Oberoi a Punjabi and those hardest hit in Nariman House were Jews. None of them were `Marathi Manoos’. Yet, I salute those brave Marathi manoos like Mr. Karkare, who laid down their lives without even bothering to look at the region where the others were born.

Marathi Manoos – A parasite on Indian Society

Don’t blame Pakistan or the terrorist. They had the courage and pride to inflict damage to a country they believe is there enemy. We have to blame so called Indians like the Thackeray’s and the people who follow them (Marathi Manoos) who are making our society weak. These people unlike the rest of India have never had to struggle and have lived off the wealth created by outsiders. They have negligible contribution towards the growth of Mumbai which was created by outsiders who believed in national pride, hope, hard work and continuous struggle for progress. Mumbai was created by British, Gujaratis, Marwadis, Parsis and companies like TATA’s whose wealth came from their flagship company “Tata Steel” in Bihar. In fact most of these people don’t know or care about Indian History, have never stepped outside Maharastra and are not aware that Mumbai wasn’t even a part of Maharashtra. It was part of Gujarat before and the population of marathis in Mumbai was negligible before independence (http://www.mumbaispace.com/cityinfo/history.htm).

Lack of enterprise, ethics, courage and hard work has resulted in a society which demonstrates incompetence in every area and has the potential to adversely effect the Nations growth and prosperity. Some of these examples amply demonstrate this:-

1.) WEAK & CORRUPT POLICE:- 14 maharastrian policeman died without killing a single terrorist !!! This is because it is more of political force then a law enforcer. Why do they have fancy names likes ATS when they can’t protect themselves, leave alone protecting others, thier jeeps get hijacked by terrorist!! In fact at CST when a brave photographer (Anil Singh – who shot the photographs of the terrorists) informed armed policemen about the terrorists , they ran away. Inspite of all this we make these people National heroes and people like Sharmila the wife of Raj Thackeray sends SMSs glamorizing the non existent contribution of marathis in saving the city by stating that all policemen killed in Mumbai were Marathis.
2) WEAK & CORRUPT POLITICIANS:- Pratibha patil – our president Mrs. Pratibha Patil – the cosmetic head of state? So much has happened. Mumbai and India was attacked and at war and Mrs. Patil was not to be seen anywhere? Why? Shivraj Patil – The worst home minister ever seen , he was more bothered about his dressing then the terrorist attacks on India. RR Patil – Mr Patil spoke and behaved as if he was featuring in a pulp Bollywood movie, during the 60-hour-long terror attack and its aftermath, with irresponsible sound-bytes serving as dialogues,” Clown, what happened to your statement “goli ka jawab goli se doongi”? Vilasrao Deshmukh , and the list goes on
3) LACK OF ENTERPRISE:- Inspite of all the opputunities available you sont have a single Industralist from the state who has been able to create jobs at a mass level. There are many parts in Maharastra where shop keepers close from 12 noon to 4 in the evening and treat customers as if they are doing a favour by selling to them, when outsiders are more successful in competing with these incapable people they are beaten up. In most organisations in Maharastra the most incompetent people are generally the Marathi Manoos who were hired because they were easily available and are able to retain there jobs because of the support from local politicians.

This is not a simple problem. A weak society influenced by paranoid cowards, completely detached from reality, confused and megalomaniacs like Raj Thackeray has the potential to completely destroy the country to take india to fragmented pre-1947 india , which was a period of intense repression from foreign forces where we saw large scale genocides, large scale destruction of hindu temples and blatant conversion of temples into mosques.
