Belgaon or Bell Gaon (धोक्याची घंटा)

I was reading news 'Centre snubs Maharashtra over border dispute', as far as know this is the lost battle.

Let me give u brief history about Belgaon and other 4 districts claimed by Maharashtra.
The Belgaum and 4 other districts border dispute is a dispute involving the Indian states of Maharashtra and Karnataka. Belgaum, currently a part of Karnataka and earlier the erstwhile Bombay Presidency, is claimed by Maharashtra on linguistic grounds.

We all know that states were formed on the basis of language and it that was the parameters then those 5 districts should have been with Maharashtra and not the current situation. As these people speak Marathi as their primary language they have the right to give education to their children in their mother tongue and not kannada.

Congress and BJP are just playing with the sentiments and not resolving the issue. Even though both parties claimed to be with the maharashtriyans they have very good record in disappointing us.

We all ignore this issue for very long and need to speak about it. I think centre should know what we can do and should teach them a lesson so...

I think it is a high time that we all speak in one language and register our protests or be ready for more betrayals by center.
