Mee East-Indian

The East Indians of Bombay are the true original inhabitants of Bombay (Mumbai).  Where are their villages ?  Their mother tongue is  Marathi. They have been deprived, cheated, and taken for granted over many year. Many have benefited from them. Governments have never paid much heed to them. Many feel that OBC status,  can help them.Today have come together as one, fighting for a common cause, their right to survive in their own land, to follow their customs and traditions as they have been following for generations.

Read about the East Indian culture, cuisine, folklore, songs...etc, It is indeed very sad that such a rich culture is at a risk of being lost forever. By ignoring and not caring about the original people, who have lived on the islands of Bombay, the island of Salsette, Chaul and Thana for Centuries, the current governemts are ignoring the very backbone that has made Bombay what it is today.
