which two languages spoken in Mumbai state before is was divided in 1960
Answers
Explanation:
May 1 is a significant day in Indian history. 56 years ago, the modern day state of Maharashtra was formed, and the day is celebrated as Maharashtra Day.
Back then, the States Reorganisation Act, 1956, clearly stated the boundaries for states within India on the basis of languages.

The Bombay State was formed under this act. People speaking various languages like Marathi, Gujarati, Kutchi and Konkani asked for it. However, having two linguistic units in one state was not working out.
The Sanyukta Maharashtra Samiti was leading the movement to divide Bombay state into two states — one where people primarily spoke Gujarati and Kutchhi. And the other where people primarily spoke Marathi and Konkani.
Thus, on May 1, 1960, as per the Bombay Reorganisation Act, Maharashtra and Gujarat were divided and Maharashtra became a separate state.
