Varanasi Blogger Confronts Maharashtra Tourists Over Language Issue

A blogger in Varanasi, named Avish Srivastava, approached four tourists from Maharashtra who were enjoying street food.

He started a conversation about the ongoing debate between the Marathi and Hindi languages.

The blogger accused the tourists of supporting actions in Maharashtra where people from Uttar Pradesh are allegedly forced to speak Marathi.

The tourists denied these claims and said such incidents are exaggerated for content.

Many people online criticized the blogger for filming the tourists without their consent and invading their privacy.

The incident has brought back discussions about the language issue in Maharashtra, where there have been reports of people being threatened or assaulted for not speaking Marathi.
