Petty politics played by ShivSena and this seems to me like a plague which is spreading to each state and regional political parties like TRS are adopting these issues to rake up the vote bank.It looks like British divide and rule policy and a nation like ours strongly condems this.

whatever sachin said is absolutely correct ....where was mns and shivsena and there so called "marathi manus sevaks" when terrorists attacked mumbai .... It was the Indian commandos that saved mumbai and not "marathi manus sevaks"....... these people don't understand this much?????? this shows how low politics can go......

sena has jumped into a wrong pitch. This incident will further diminish their image among marathis. Its high time, Senior thackrey and his nephew realize that maharashtra is a part of india, and grow up.

These parties want vote at any cost. Such parties are more dangerous to unity of India, than Pakistan. If such forces are not contained at the earliest, country will disintegrate sooner than later. We need to concentrate at internal terrorism as we do for external terrorism.

Sachin has proved himself in his profession and achieved a name international level but this old man is really tired and does not roar anymore ,his roar is now compared to mew of a cat now.
He should step down from politics as I feel its his end of the innings for him and as he grows older and older he is losing mental balance . He should start remembering God and spent time with his grandchildren and stop interfering in Politics.
End of an era of Bala Saheb....

Bal Thackeray has attacked Sachin only to be in the news. By his logic, if the Mumbai team is playing a Ranji Trophy event at the same time when there is an Test/ODI, Sachin should not be playing for India but for Mumbai!

This is the true definition of dirty politics. THey know it very well there are no takers for these comments, but still pass it on for publicity. I think people like Tackreys should be more accountable. Their provoking statements should be considered as offense and should be punished. Only then india will remain as a country. What is shiv sena's contribution to maharashtra? what have they done for the people of maharashtra?

Bal Thackery is an idiot. The man is at the fag end of his life and in my opinion should concentrate on the spiritual side rather than political side. But I am not surprised at his outburst against Sachin Tendulkar. After all what else can we expect from a man who has openly admired Hitler.

Tendulkar has made indians proud many times,but people like raj/bal thakeray have put us ti shame soo many times that we have lost count....so mr thakeray "keep ur advis to yourself and dont ever talk about a person who has made the country proud on o many occasions!!the people of maharashtra have already voted you out....

Dear All,
It isnt sachins mistake, but balasaab will react to it as he want to be in limelight always.
I am not blaming any perticular politician, actually over whole political system is flawn.
The politics based on regionalism is hastening in maharastra, that will slowly proliferate to all developing states of india.
people coming from UP,Bihar to mumbai are in huge number, that is due to poor development rate in such states.
This type of migration is making india more and more polar day by day, once the saturation will come, its divastating results will lead india to disinitgration or more vulnerable country.
I rearly comment on any topic, I always think that India is a huge country and these are small matters which can be ignred, But this isnt a small mater, we need a UNIFORMLY GROWING INDIA. All parts of india should grow more or less equally, or this will increase the rift between two indians, after decades.
I request to people to GO FOR VOATING, USE UR RIGHT and ELECT HONEST PERSONS AS LEADERS.
Jai Hind
