Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Manoj Jarange, a prominent Maratha quota activist, has issued a strong warning to the state government. He stated that there will be serious consequences if elections proceed without addressing the Maratha community's demand for reservation. Jarange has called for a large gathering at a Dasara Melava in Narayangadh, Beed district, urging Marathas to unite and stand firm in their fight for reservation. He emphasized that he will not compromise on any demands, including the withdrawal of criminal cases against Maratha community members. Jarange warned that the state government may face backlash in upcoming elections if it continues to ignore the Maratha community's demands. He highlighted the importance of dignity and equality for Marathas and criticized those hindering progress by denying recognition to the entire Maratha community as ‘Kunbis' within the existing OBC quota. Despite promises from the chief minister's government to address the issue, progress has been slow, causing discontent among the community and uncertainties among various political parties.
