future mumbai....

Attn.: Arvind Lodaya   Gentleman: Someone brought to my attention your WEB article. I am puzzled by your comments. You seem to ignore the fact that Shivaji is a symbol of Freedom worldwide! City of San Jose has installed a statue of Shivaji in one of their gardens. It is worth your while one book a month on India's History. It will shed some light to you. Please note Mumbai was made up of seven islands. It was filled by hard labor of native Marathi people before EIC shifted it's HQ from Surat to Mumbai. They were traders & they changed the demography of Mumbai by shifting the population of Zaveri (Gujarati) & Parsee from Surat & Billimora since they wanted to sell Gold ingots to Zaveri & use Teak wood of Dang Forrest to build war ships with the help of Wadia & hard labor of Marathi people. Morarji Desai then CM of Bombay had issued "Shoot on Site" orders to kill marathi people & he did cause death of innocent people since police did kill 107 marathi people! Is this Gandhian notion of nonviolence practiced by jesuit Wilson college educated Morarji ? Was it democracy? Do you want me continue educating? It is time out for you to withdraw your article from the internet since it reflects very badly on a mis-guided soul! Sincerely, Dilip I think there are plenty of books to read on this subject.
