Another language controversy inside SBI. This time, Uddhav Sena workers assaulted an employee for allegedly insulting the Marathi language in Dhule. This cycle of violence won’t stop unless all those in central banks unite, protest and demand protection and accountability from the govt. Neither the state nor the centre...

If someone truly made an insulting remark about the Marathi language, the right thing to do is file a police complaint and let the law take its course. Violence, intimidation, and public shaming are not the answer — especially when there’s no proof and only one-sided claims. Targeting bank employees without proper investigation not only puts innocent people at risk but also creates an unsafe work environment for everyone. We must ensure that politics doesn’t override justice and dignity in such matters. Let truth, not anger, lead the way.

Bank employees especially officers are transferred every 3 to 4 years. They can't possibly learn every state language that they are transferred to. Banks have local staff at the front desks that know the local language. People get the required services from these front staff. This act by MNS is just politics.

This incident reeks of political opportunism masquerading as linguistic pride. Let’s be clear: assaulting a bank employee based on an unverified allegation isn’t justice — it’s mob rule.

India’s refusal to declare a national language fuels endless regional ego battles. The 3-language system is sabotaged by states driven more by pride than unity. Language-based clashes are a shame. Constitution’s silence on a national language lets petty politics divide Bharat. Time for a strong, clear linguistic policy.

The street goons who wants to be politicians purposely do it so they can show their uneducated followers that they are also someone who can hackle, slap & abuse a govt employee!! These street goons are always from some political party which is finding a political ground and resort to language war as their political ground!! Yes state govt & Central govt won’t interfere & help govt employees, street vendors & shopkeepers who are on target of these street goons! They won’t ever enter in areas like Mumbra, Mumbai for their language love!!

They could have been arguing but slapping a government employee that too publicly for not speaking Marathi is really pathetic. Just because someone is associated with a political party suddenly starts thinking they are above law or they are the law. An FIR must be lodged against such goons and they should be taught a lesson by sending them to a Hindi speaking state and forced to do a community service for a year.

#WATCH | In Rajya Sabha, HM Amit Shah says, "...I would like to say something so that those who divide the country in the name of language do not get their agenda. Under the Department of Official Language, Narendra Modi Govt has set up Indian Languages Section which will work to enhance the usage of all Indian languages - Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Assamese, Bengali, all languages. After December, I will have written correspondence with citizens, CMs, Ministers and MPs in their own language. This is a strong reply to those who run their shops in the name of language to hide their corruption...What are they saying? That we oppose languages of the south? How can this be possible?...I come from Guajrat, Nirmala Sitharanan from Tamil Nadu. How can we oppose this? What are you saying? We have worked for languages...I would like to tell Tamil Nadu Government - we have been saying for two years that you do not have the courage to translate medical and engineering study material into Tamil...You cannot do this. When an NDA govt comes to power (in Tamil Nadu), we will provide medical and engineering course in Tamil, in Tamil Nadu. I would like to tell those who spread poison in the name of language that you like languages from thousands of kilometres away but you do not language of India...I have said this again and again Hindi has no competition with any other Indian language. Hindi is a friend of all Indian languages, all Indian languages strengthen from Hindi and Hindi strengthens from all Indian languages..."

India is a land of many languages — but true unity stems from mutual respect, not forced conformity. Tejasvi Surya (तेजस्वी सूर्या) is a native Kannada speaker from Karnataka, just as Marathi is widely spoken across Maharashtra. While regional languages are an essential part of India's cultural identity, the employees of the Government of India primarily communicate in Hindi and English — the two official languages recognized and used across all central institutions. Expecting every central government or bank employee to fluently speak the regional language of the state they’re posted in is not just unrealistic, but also unfair. Take banking, for instance — it’s a centrally administered service. Bank employees may be posted anywhere in the country, often in states where their native language is not spoken. India’s linguistic landscape is incredibly rich — dialects and accents change every few kilometers. In such a diverse setting, Hindi, understood by a majority, and English, used officially, act as common communication bridges. These employees are here to serve and assist. If there's a problem with their service, it should be addressed constructively. But criticizing or harassing them for not speaking a local language is unjust. Should a Kannada speaker be expected to speak Punjabi in Punjab, Pahari in Himachal, or Haryanvi in Haryana? Certainly not. The recent incident involving a bank employee being targeted over a language issue is deeply unfortunate. It reflects a disturbing trend — one that threatens to sow division in the name of identity. Language is a means to connect, not to divide or degrade. India’s strength lies in its diversity. And that strength is preserved not by making everyone the same, but by recognizing, accepting, and respecting our differences. Let us not forget — dignity, respect, and service must rise above language barriers. That's the essence of a united and inclusive India.

The Circle (2000, Panahi)/ Iran "Political movies have limited time. After that time, it doesn’t say anything anymore. But if the whole thing is said in an artistic way, then it doesn’t have an expiration date." --- Jafar Panahi Full Excerpt: "Interviewer: The subject matter of 'The Circle' (2000) is controversial. You mentioned that the film is still banned in Iran. In fact, when I was watching the film, I realized that through the characters, there’s a lot of fear about the system, the establishment, the police. The women can’t smoke; they have to wear the chador; they seem to want to hide every time. This is all very clear from watching the film. Did you deliberately want to make a statement about the political situation in Iran? Panahi: I have to tell you again that I’m not a political person. I don’t like political movies. But I take every opportunity to comment on the social issues. I talk about the current issues. To me it’s not important what is the reason for what has happened. Whether it’s political reasons or geographical reasons: these are not important—but the condition, the social issues. It is important to me to talk about the plight of humanity at that time. I don’t want to give a political view, or start a political war. I think that the artist should rise above this. Political movies have limited time. After that time, it doesn’t say anything anymore. But if the whole thing is said in an artistic way, then it doesn’t have an expiration date. So it doesn’t really serve a political purpose. Then it can be everlasting, for always, and it could be for anywhere. But I know that politically, with the film authorities, with any kind of film that has some political background in it, they would take issue with it. And for this reason, that is what the problem is. Interviewer: Still, your film makes a very strong statement about the problems that women face in Iran. Panahi: Yes, I agree with that. Interviewer: So that is humanitarian, of course, but it’s also political. Panahi: Yes, I agree with that. It has the elements. It all depends on how you look at it. If a person has only political views, then he will only see the political. But if you are a poet or an artist, then you see other things as well in the movie. If you are a socialist, you see political or economic or whatever different points of view. You mustn’t look at a film with only one point of view. If you want to see 'The Circle' (2000) as political, then it is one of the most political movies in Iran. By political, I mean partisan politics. But even the police, I didn’t want to show them as bad. In the first instance, you are afraid of the police. Because you are looking at them from the point of view of someone who is now in prison. And normally you see him in a long shot, but when they come nearer and you see them in a medium shot, you can see their human faces. Then it comes down to, “Do you need any help?” But he goes back again and becomes frightening. If I were being political, then I would always show the police as dangerous or bad persons." (Jafar Panahi's interview with Stephen Teo, Senses of Cinema, 2001)
