Uncle Raj, Why is there Unemployment in your Maharashtra?

Mr Raj made a very interesting point recently, saying that North Indians are utter nuisance to the Maharashtrian community as they are giving their Marathi counterparts a run for their money. They are eating up all job opportunities, leaving a huge number of Maharashtrians unemployed.

Are you trying to say that Marathi people are incompetent? I don't think so. North Indians don't think so... By common sense, if North Indians are a mess in Maharashtra, so are Marathis in North India! In that case, lets drive out Marathi people from the North. Is that how you guys want to play politics for your votes?

I want to ask another basic question. Instead of fretting over who gets what jobs in Maharashtra, why don't we talk about the number and kind of jobs available in the state?


Lets say Maharashtra has 100 jobs, out of which North Indians ate up 70, depriving the locals of their livelihood. Let's consider for a while that there were no North Indians in the line up and all 100 jobs went to Marathi people. But still there are 200 jobless Marathis (coz there are 300 Marathis seeking jobs)! Isn't that the actual situation? My question is that if there are no North Indians in the state, why are 200 people still unemployed?


We must try to look through this propaganda and raise more important questions. Questions like, "Why are there so less jobs in Maharashtra? Why are there no jobs in the North? (else, why would North Indians come all the way to Maharashtra, leaving their homes and families?)


I ask Mr Raj, "Why is there such widespread employment in Maharashtra?"


Oh, I get it now! That must be because of the Christians or South Indians! No no, it has to be those Muslims again, right Uncle Raj? Lets bombard Muslims now. But, that's the BJP strategy, lets leave it to them! Well, then we are left only with the South Indians, but even that episode is over, thanks to Bal Ji. I think the best option would be to come up with some more innovative ways to distinguish among people and make them fight. Atleast that would serve the purpose for some while, right?

What we don't realize is the kind of impact and hatred it inculcates in the common man. And not only men, in children as well. I happened to talk to a few children in a slum in Pune, and guess what they had to say about North Indians. "Ye North Indians ko laat mar ke bhaga dena chahiye Maharashtra se! Unke wajah se humein naukari nahi milti!"

These are kids in 6th and 7th standard. So from the age of 11-12 yrs, we are training our next generation youth to fight against each other. Who says, India is not developing?
