He further stressed that Mumbai was always melting communities.
“There is no such controversy in Mumbai. Marathi and non-marathi live in Mumbai. They lived together many generations. There was never hostility or guessing between them,” he added, urging people to keep away from the language line and call it a “trap”.
What triggered the controversy of Marathi?
There is no such dispute between marathi and non-marathi in the Mahara.
The controversy in the state began with a government resolution (GR) issued on April 16, ordering the introduction of Hindi as a third language for students from classes 1 to 5 in Marathi and English secondary schools. This step brought sharp criticism, and many accused the state government of attempting to impose Hindi.
In the middle of the growing pressure, CM Fadnavis announced the download of April 16 GR in early July.
