MUMBAI: Fuelling the language row further in Maharashtra, Raj Thackeray-led MNS today asked taxi drivers from the Hindi-speaking states of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh to be conversant in Marathi within 40 days or return to their native homes.
As part of its 'Marathi manoos' agenda, activists of the transport wing of MNS today hit the streets and distributed Marathi alphabets books to taxi drivers asking them to learn to speak the language fast.
"We have given Marathi alphabets books to 300 north Indian taxi drivers in Kurla and set a 40-day deadline to learn the language," Maharashtra Navnirman Vahtuk Sena president.
