Maharashtra has said in its proposal that there are 865 Marathi-speaking villages in the disputed area and every inch of their land will be merged with Maharashtra. To do this, the Maharashtra government will do whatever is required to be done in the Supreme Court. These villages include Belgaum, Karwar, Bidar, Nipani, and Bhalki.
