'Hindi has now become spoken language of Mumbai': Maha minister

Mumbai, May 31 (UNI) Maharashtra Transport Minister Pratap Sarnaik claimed on Saturday that Hindi has now become the spoken language of Mumbai.
"We call Marathi our mother tongue. However, Hindi has become the spoken language of Mumbai. I sometimes communicate with people in pure Marathi. However, when I go to Mira-Bhayander, which is my constituency, Hindi automatically comes out of my mouth," he said.
Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut strongly criticised Sarnaik for his statement, arguing that Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray formed Shiv Sena so that the Marathi people can live with dignity.
