"The question is where all these people get their courage. When Marathi people speak out, it immediately becomes national news. But when these others speak, they know the government supports them. Because the government is imposing these things here, these people's courage only grows. But I will reiterate, your power may be in the Lok Sabha or Vidhan Bhavan, but our power is on the streets. You should also walk around with your people. Because this Maharashtra belongs to the father of the Marathi people. If anyone tries to act recklessly in Maharashtra again, my Maharashtra soldiers will respond decisively."

Talking about the Marathi Language row raj Thackeray said,  "I have not come here to stoke any controversy over language. Beware, anything can happen with you. I am a Hindu but Hindi cannot be imposed on me. If anyone has a right over this region, it is we (Marathis). You are the sons of Maharashtra, others have come from outside. If someone comes here and does something a little too much, then beat them up."
