Full state honours for Balasaheb - The Times of India
So Indians, who are never short of cheap banter against the likes of Zahid Hamid, have no problem in giving full honours to their own fundamentalists and extremists characters. :tdown:
Zahid Hamid death won't bring over 2 million people on roads. Was Bala Saheb extremist ideology supporter yes, but did he made idiotic comments like Ghosts fought with the army, No.

Changing the size of the font doesn't add weight to your statement. BTW, there is new ruling, don't mock or disrespect the dead even if you hate them to the depth.

May be Windie felt that Zaid Hamid deserves that status on the merits of his single handedly leading Pakistan's 5 year program of colonizing moon.. ;)

Yes he was. he advocated formation of Hindu Suicide squads to take on Muslims in India


He advocated protests against western culture too. shiv sainaiks launched such protests

He and his supporters advocated hateful drives against FM Hussain.

His followers spread hate against non-Marathis


there are ,many more points.

anyway i dont go for comparing him or anyone else with anyone
 
I wasn't without cable TV. And I have lived here when the official name was Bombay and when the official name has been Mumbai. The Mumbaification of Bombay killed this city's soul.

Bombay was a artificial creation which did not have the flavour of the soil. Some page 3 celebrities and gentry does not constitute Mumbai. The average Mumbaikar constitute it. And yesterday it was clear to me.

I wont even equate Zaid Hamid to "wind passed" by Bal Thackeray.

Bal Thackeray last journey to the cremation ground brought 2milion of his loyal supporters to pay respect to his dead body that's the kind of charisma the man held. No wonder he got full state honors at his funerals.
 
Although thakra died but there will no change in india pak relationships because a patient of thalassimia can live a little longer by blood transfusion but this does not mean his etiology has ended in same way shiv seena is a cancer which will never favour india pak friendship either it's under raj or any other thakra
 
Is The Red cap moron a political leader now ??

Balasaheb Thackeray, who never held government office.


They were not full state honors if that makes you feel better.

The tricolor was not at half mast.

TOI states otherwise.

When people have a fundamentalist psyche, they will amass to such gatherings, he was a known firebrand, hence, how did i mock him. ??
 
It cuts both ways - you think without him it could have been as bad as Karachi. I think it would have been as open and as cosmopolitan in its outlook as New York.

Yes cosmopolitan and broad in its outlook in Colaba and few isolated pockets with 12 ft walled compounds with CCTV cameras. Safety and security of life is the most important thing and everything come after that. I can go out at 3 in the morning today and come home unscathed that would be almost impossible in few other "cosmopolitan" cities like Delhi. And as such Mumbai is not that bad in its cosmopolitan nature.
 
well with the death of Bal thackrey the Shiv sena has considreably weakened! due to the fact that no true leader remains! the MNS won't merge with Shiv sena & even if it does it will lead to a power struggle between cousins weaking the cause of shiv sena.

you can say the days of Shiv Sena are over.
