The Maharashtra Governor Bhagat SinghKoshyari has clarified his statement on Mumbai being the financial capital after the controversy erupted on the remark.
Mumbai: Yesterday at the naming ceremony of a chowk in Andheri, the Maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari during his speech made a statement that Mumbai is the financial capital because the Gujaratis and Rajasthanis are present in the place, and this erupted a controversy with Congress MPs opposing him and Sanjay Raut condemned the contribution of Marathaโs being unnoticed. Hence, the governor today has given his clarification regarding the controversy in his tweet.
He fired 3 tweets to clear the controversy raged over his remark, โMarathi people built Maharashtra by working hard. That is why many Marathi entrepreneurs are famous today. They are planting the flag of Marathi in a big way not only in Maharashtra but in India and all over the world. Therefore, there is no question of underestimating the contribution of the Marathi people.โ
โBut as usual my statement was distorted. Marathi peopleโs hard work has contributed the most in the construction of Maharashtra. Lately the vision of seeing everything through political glasses has developed, we have to change that. Appreciating one community is never an insult to another community.โ
โPolitical parties should not create controversy over it without reason. Marathi people will never be insulted by me at least. In the progress and development of this Marathi land which is made up of various castes and communities, everyone has a contribution and the contribution of Marathi people is more.โ
