Won't allow Australian players in IPL, says Uddhav Thackeray

[CSK Fan]

the hypocrisy of these shiv sena *******s is just amazing.They want to be the defenders of the whole of india against the big bad aussies but wont allow non-marathis to work in their state.I dont know how people of maharastra put up with their crap.

Yep. And the racial attacks in Aus is most probably motivated by the same theme as Shiv Sena/MNS has. That is, jobs for locals and send back outsiders

"We will not allow" every time anything is about to happen thats all these bastards have to say. Its govt fault who didnt put them behind bars when they took "action" after warning. They have done it for more than 2 decades and now they believe they can enforce whatever they believe is right. Its illegal and if the central/state govt has balls then they should arrest these rats for the warnings that they have issued

this is nothing but an extortion method, Modi will call these thakereys ask them how much money they need to keep their mouth shut, they will settle on a price and thats the end of it. In the mean time aussies will on their own pull out, thakray will claim because of him. Makes money aussies also dont come good for him.

Maybe this is also a covert diplomatic operation to get back at the Australian govt. What do we know?:hysterical:

there is no getting back at Oz govt required. Oz is home to 100K Indian students ... the visa applications have dropped by 40-50%. The aussies are sweating bullets and will be working hard to rectify both the real situation and the perception that these incidents have created.

Very good idea. Once the Aussies are kicked out, they should move to get rid of all non-Marathis from Mumbai Indians team. In fact, "Indians" is such a non-patriotic non-Marathi name. It should be renamed after Shivaji or Tilak.

"We would not allow Australian players to play here" Who the f**k are they to block Oz players? .:mad: This is a democracy and did our Parliament pass a law to ban Oz Players?

Dont think pawar will let that happen . Let's see when the D day comes.

[achilles]

take the mumbai indian franchise and give it to ahmedabad' date='couldnt be simpler.[/quote'] So that people can fight over that too? Protests would go somehow like- "How the heck can you give a franchise of our Mumbai to some other city? This is a conspiracy". :((

I also posted it in the IPL forum. I am now quite concerned because IPL had shifted the opening ceremony and match to Mumbai from Hyderabad for the Telengana and security issue. But now I am not sure if this is the right decision as SS and MNS have both made the threat now.

Whats sad is that they are doing it openly... Their behaviours/acts are there for everyone to see.... and noone can do anything about it...We all say India is great, India is best but sadly a common man has no respect/power in his hands...This is what I love about Canada..There is no poor/rich thing in country.. Everyone has equal powers... lol, reminds me of a funny incident in Canada... In last elections, this guy comes over to our neighbourhood and rings our house bell and shows us a pamphlate requesting us to vote for a Candidate.. I look at the poster and I was like " hmm, I have seen this guy somewhere"... The guy was " Its me".. eventually he won the seat from our area....hahaa, a MP of our province was himself going over to peoples house for votes... No security, no people aorund him... and I still remember how things go in India... thousands and thousands of Chamchaas go over tractors, trucks, tempos screaming for the MP Zindabaad chant..MP is nowhere around. tell me how in the world that screaming from those all over the city would force me to vote for the MP...

what bloody morons ... only they can stoop so low for achieving political mileage:angry_smile:

[achilles]

With crores at stake, I'm sure that the IPL will make sure nothing goes wrong and that Aamchi Mumbai hosts a spectacle that people remember for years and years to come :mi: :two_thumbs_up:

[shubham45]

shiv sena sux.... they r doing it just for few votes....shiv sena should b banned

Telangana Agitators have promised not to disrupt IPL matches. They are planning to write a letter to Modi..may be opening ceremony will come back to Hyderabad

[achilles]

^ They are protesting openly on Live TV and are saying that even the 3 matches that are scheduled to be held there are going to be "dealt in the right way" by them. :((

[straight.drive]

^ Prof.Konandaram has promised to write to the Lalit Modi that they will not disrupt IPL. But no one can control the rowdies of osmania university.

[achilles]

^ Thats like saying, "I'm writing a letter and I won't disrupt matches. But if I (sic) provoke er... see my supporters doing that, I won't be held accountable" :((

[straight.drive]

^Yeah man.Our city is doomed until these troublemakers are behind the bars. Once state bifurcation happens, hyderabad will no longer be as important as it was before. Resource-rich coastal andhra can build an even better city.

[achilles]

^ I feel shocked when I see all that violence on the TV. Its really saddening.
