Iran Says Six 'ENEMY-BACKED' Insurgents Killed In IRGC Ground Forces' Action
Marathi vs non-Marathi debate has taken an ugly turn in Maharashtra after a viral road rage incident triggered political outrage in Mumbai. Social media influencer Rajshree More filed an FIR against Rahil Shaikh, son of MNS leader Javed Shaikh, for allegedly ramming his car into hers while intoxicated. The crash was followed by verbal abuse, threats, and dramatic confrontations, all caught on video. Rahil, partly clothed and visibly aggressive in the clip, is seen abusing and offering hush money, while admitting his MNS affiliation. The case is especially charged since More had earlier criticised Maharashtrians' work ethic in a now-deleted post, which drew MNS ire. Police have filed charges under multiple acts including the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita for endangering personal safety and insulting a woman's modesty. The incident adds fuel to ongoing debates around politics, power, and public accountability in Maharashtra.#rahilshaikh #rajshreemore #mns #maharashtra #drunkdriving #mnscontroversy #influencervideo #roadaccident #marathilangrow #viralvideo #marathi #languagedebate #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews

Sena UBT workers thrash auto driver, force him to apologise for 'anti-Marathi' comments
Mumbai: In yet another language-related violence in Maharashtra, an auto driver has been beaten up and forced to apologise by Shiv Sena (UBT) workers in Palghar district's Virar for 'anti-Marathi' comments. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. Virar police on Sunday claimed that it hasn't received a formal complaint in the matter and hence no case has been registered. According to the video that has gone viral, arguments on overtaking snowballed into Marathi versus non-Marathi issues. While auto driver Raju Patwa, originally from UP, refused to speak in Marathi, he can also be heard saying: "Hindi Bolunga, Bhojpuri bolunga, par Marathi nahi bolunga, do what you want to do." It is alleged Patwa also made some derogatory remarks against the Marathi language, Maharashtra and Marathi icons. Apparently, those who had heated exchange with Patwa are from UP's Jhansi, but they are well-versed in Marathi. In the video, UBT Sena workers can be seen assaulting the auto driver. He is then made to apologise by saying, " I apologise to the people of Maharashtra for insulting Marathi." He is also made to touch the feet of the Marathi speaking lady passenger and then apologise in Marathi. Live Events
