There is no difference between the winners and loosers in the election, but only few thousand votes and winner takes it all. If you count entire votes polled to Shiv sena in Maharahstra is has crossed crores and many of the ardent followers of the party have not voted due to long weekend holidays during the elections. A persons popularity is not measured on the basis of the votes he gets but the love and respects he commands.

While naming of Religious or Political leaders have to be avoided, it is better to choose neutral names like someone suggested ''Bandra Worli Sealink bridge'' when naming public places. In the meantime, I am slightly taken aback by Mr M Bhat''s comments calling Bal Thackeray a patriotic man. Human memory is indeed very short and Mr Bhat seemed to have forgotten that Sena goons bullied South Indians and targetted Udupi restaurants in particular because of their huge success in Mumbai and now they have redirected their wrath on North Indians. When did hooliganism translate as Patriotism?

M.Bhat, Mumbai, If crore’s of people liked him why it didn’t translated into votes and Shiv Sena didn’t sweep Maharastra in the recently concluded Parliament election? If Crore’s of people like him then much more than crore’s unlike him for dividing the nation in the name of religion & regionalism. There is nothing wrong in naming sea-link after late Rajiv Gandhi, he was the Prime Minister of India and had a vision for developed India. May be Balasaheb wants to keep his name because may be he fears that people will forget him after his death.

Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray could be right in his guessing. If the NCP leader, Sharad Pawar, who fought tooth and nail to oppose Sonia Gandhi becoming the PM, is to recommend to name the bridge after Rajiv Gandhi, then he must surely be trying to "return home" as he has lost his face in the recent election in his State where, hitherto he had a very strong hold. Now that he bit the dust in the election, he has no other option but to please the madam Sonia Gandhi and join her party. Let''s wait and see if Thackeray is right.

Some one is spending crores of taxpayer’s money to install her own statue.

Rahul, Mangalore

Do we need to name everything after someone? Can''t it remain as it is? To keep every controversy at bay, it should remain as ''Bandra-Worli'' sea link. Regarding the present controversy, just as it is not needed to name it after Rajiv, it is also not needed to name it after Veer Savarkar either, as proposed by Thackeray or someone else.

Veer Savarkar''s contributions to India and Indian democracy is highly questionable, given the fact that he was opposed for democracy and wanted Manu code for ''Akhand Bharat''. His Akhand Bharat, as for him, is meant only for Hindus and not for anyone. Can''t term him patriotic either, because, he is the one who vehemently opposed ''Quit India Movement''. What does it suggest? Was he favouring British rule in India. Again, he was accused of Mahatma Gandhi''s assasination, though he was acquited later owing to ''lack of evidences''. He was the founder of youth brigade of ''Abhinav Bharat'', which is today accused of bomb blasts in Malegaon and other places.

So my suggestion is that let not our ambitious and dream project become scapegoat of controversies. Both Bandra and Worli are beautiful names. So squash the present name of Rajiv Gandhi and name it as before. Note that as long as it was Bandra-Worli Sea link, there was no problem. Once it is named, problems have started. Let not divide the project as Maratha, or someone else. This project belongs to India and it links Indians and two major towns of India.

Don''t give a serious thought to Bal Thackeray''s views. He is the one, after all, who started dividing present day Indias on the basis of language, region and religion. Listening to someone who is wise is good. But there''s no greater folly than listening to someone who can talk only foolish things. After all what is there in name?

Tomorrow, I am sure you will call Nathuram Godse too national hero. Here you are reflecting a particular organisations ideologies.

There is nothing great about it. This man sits at home in cosy comfort and lets loose his goons to beat up people.People don''t stay indoors out of respect, but out of fear.

There may be importance for good comments in politics but the way Thackeray uses Samnaa Editorial is to be noted.

There is nothing new in his opinion except for the same hatred speeches, which couldn’t even glorify Mumbai (forget about nation!). Mr. Rajiv Gandhi was the national leader and can’t be compared to Bangladeshis born in Mumbai every day in contrast to name the Sea-link.
