All thackerays are the same .. Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray on Thursday dared Railway Minister Lalu Prasad to perform 'Chhat Pooja' at Marina Beach in Chennai to oppose the imposition of Tamil by the Karunanidhi government in schools across the state. In a reference to Prasad's recent statement in the wake of MNS leader Raj Thackeray's anti-North Indian stir that he would come to Mumbai to perform Chhat pooja, Thackeray, in an editorial published in party mouthpiece Saamana said, the Karunanidhi government has issued an ordinance making Tamil compulsory in all schools in the state. "Lalu who has turned Bihar into a hell, should hold a mela of Biharis in Tamil Nadu ruled by his ally at the Centre to champion the cause of North Indians there." Launching a scathing attack on the reported demand by some local North Indian Congress leaders that Hindi be made an official language in BMC, Thackeray said, "let them try this out in Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkota and Guwahati first." "The sons of soil here will not tolerate any insult to the status of Marathi and Mumbai," the edit added. Thackeray said the Congress leaders making the demand to impose Hindi on Mumbai's civic body should be prosecuted by the Maharashtra government and put behind bars. Reacting to the statement by state Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh that Mumbai's doors were open to all, he said, "Mumbai is being exploited criminally and economically at the cost of the Bhoomiputras who had remained underprivileged."

Budhao(Balls Thackeray) pagla gaya hai. What the hell has Chath Puja got to do with imposition of Tamil language? So anytime any regional language is given precedence over Hindi a Bihari politician is supposed to visit that state and start performing Chath Puja?? Laloo's point of performing Chath Puja in Mumbai came after Raj Thackeray brought it up as an issue and how the Puja should be stopped in Mumbai. Hence Laloo's assertion that he would do so in Mumbai and see who stops him. By the way I am not sure when was the last time I was defending Laloo :((

What exactly is Chhat Pooja ?
Chatt Puja is Surya Puja, as in worship of Sun God. It is celebrated mostly in Bihar/UP belt and can be categorized as the most popular festival of Bihar. Pound for pound it is also one of the toughest Puja since people, generally ladies, who perform it go hungry for 3 days, 2 days atleast and dont eat/drink anything, including water. Some of the ultra pious ones will not even regurgitate saliva:(( It is celebrated a couple of weeks after Deewali.
