    At a recent railway event Raj Thackeray repeatedly referred to the 'Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus' by its old name 'Victoria Terminus'. Shouldn't the Shiv Sena goons be beating up Mr Thackeray now for insulting the Marathi Manoos?

    Isn't this hypocrisy? He goes around calling the likes of Tendulkar and Shahrukh traitors and making Karan Johar apologize for calling Mumbai, Bombay! Now he is cooking up some story that he has been misquoted. Apparently he was reminiscing and telling people about the old days when he used to travel by local trains so he had to use the term VT! Yeah right!

    What does everyone else think?

    Hi,

    I too heard and saw this news on the news channel. Caught red handed.
    There are a list of other things to be noted :
    Though both Thackerays Uddhav and Raj talk abt anti english hoardings etc their children go to the best english medium schools only.
    Practice what you preach.Raj needs to practice his speeches well before he comes to stage to deliver them.

    Parvathi.

    Gauri I swear Mr Thackeray should be unanimously quoted as "Mr confused Ideologist"

    Just worried about India as all educated and powerful individuals are playing their own blame game, only to embitter India’s plight :drowning
