News Track With Akshita Nandagopal LIVE: MNS Workers Assault Shopkeeper for Not Speaking Marathi
A viral video from Maharashtra shows workers of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) confronting and assaulting a shopkeeper for not speaking Marathi. The incident sparked outrage across India, with an FIR registered against seven MNS workers. The altercation escalated from verbal abuse to physical assault when the shopkeeper mentioned Hindi. This incident has reignited debates about language politics in Maharashtra, where linguistic chauvinism has been a recurring issue. The video also highlights the impunity with which such acts are carried out, as none of the accused have been arrested over 24 hours after the incident. Political analysts discuss the implications of such language-based politics in a multilingual city like Mumbai and its relevance in contemporary times.
