Maharashtra Day History

Maharashtra Day marks the formation of the state on May 1, 1960. The States Reorganisation Act, 1956, defined boundaries for the states within India on the basis of languages. The Bombay State that was formed as a consequence of this act was composed of different areas and different languages were spoken, like Marathi, Gujarati, Kutchi and Konkani. It was the Samyukta Maharashtra Samiti that was at the forefront of the movement. It decided to strengthen the movement to divide the Bombay State into two states - one composed of areas where people primarily spoke Marathi and Konkani and the other with people speaking Gujarati and Kutchi.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천April 2025 Holidays and Festivals Calendar: Complete List of Important Dates and Events in the Fourth Month of the Year.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천
