MNS leader Sandeep Sudhakar Deshpande said, "It is a historic day. We are not only celebrating at his venue, but Marathi people are celebrating 5th July as victory day at several places in Maharashtra, because the way our government was trying to impose Hindi on us, it is a victory against that. I don't think this victory rally should be seen politically. This is not a political rally, it is a victory of the Marathi people."
