Marathi requirement for permits and licenses for rickshaw and taxi drivers is absolutely wrong, Marathi language should be taught first: Abu Asim

Mumbai: Marathi is not mandatory for permits and licenses for rickshaw and taxi drivers in Maharashtra. Every state has its own language. It should be mandatory. But before that, if Marathi is to be made mandatory, then first schools should be opened to teach Marathi and teach Marathi to those who are not proficient in it. Every country speaks its own language, so where will the national language Hindi be spoken? Every state in this country has its own language, like Marathi in Maharashtra, Malayalam in Kerala, Assamese in Assam, but there is no need to force anyone to speak any language. If you want to learn Marathi, give them books, give them classes, don’t force them. Unemployment is common in the country. If someone comes to Mumbai and Maharashtra from another state, he has the right to earn a living. However, it is not right to impose the condition of only Marathi being mandatory. It is also necessary to provide employment opportunities. If Marathi has mandatory status in the state, then classes should be given to teach this language. Politics should not be done in the name of Marathi. This also tarnishes the image of the state because violence has been committed against the residents who do not know Marathi many times. Therefore, such situations should not be created and to prevent such a situation from arising, the state language should be taught to them and then they should be provided with licenses and permits.
