‘Hindi Bolo!’ Woman Refuses to Speak Marathi in Ghatkopar
मुंबई के घाटकोपर इलाके में एक बार फिर मराठी और गैर मराठी आमने सामने.।
महिला को मराठी नहीं थी, और मराठी लोग उस पर मराठी बोलने का दबाव डाल रहे थे.
जिसके बाद महिला भी काफी गुस्से में आई और बोली वो हिंदी में ही बोलेगी, यह हिंदुस्तान है. pic.twitter.com/NhtCLShJE4
