Mumbai: After Haryana Assembly elections, now people’s attention is on Maharashtra elections. It seems that this time the issue of OBC reservation will dominate the Maharashtra Assembly elections. In view of this, the Maharashtra government took a big decision. In Maharashtra, 15 castes have been recommended for the OBC list. But Maratha movement leader Manoj Jarange does not seem happy with this. He has expressed a sharp reaction to this decision of the government and has also given a last warning to the government. Actually Maratha will not be included in this.
Jarange has alleged that this is being done deliberately. He said that this is being done deliberately, the state had suggested this only a few months ago. It was hoped that the Marathas would also be taken. We don’t regret taking them. Why don’t Marathas join OBC? What is the point of including all these castes in it? We have been protesting for a year, don’t you feel ashamed? You classified them as OBC in front of our eyes.

He further said, ‘If Marathas do not take a decision before the code of conduct, I will demolish all your seats. You started hating Marathas so much. You are busy in including those castes in your cabinet meeting which cannot go in reservation. They are sitting on the umbrella of Marathas, let us clear your table. Jarange Patil has warned the government that if you do not implement the code of conduct then 55 percent Maratha community will not let you get even a seat.
What is Manoj Jarange’s plan?
Under the leadership of Maratha reservation agitator Manoj Jarange Patil, preparations for the Dussehra meeting to be held at Shrikshetra Nag Narayan Gadha in Beed are on war footing. The public meeting will be held on 500 acres of land of the fort. Stage construction and preparations for Dussehra ground are in the final stages. Saffron flags have been hoisted at various places on the Dussehra grounds. Parking arrangements have also been made. Meanwhile, Mahant Shivaji Maharaj of Narayan Garh has informed that on the day of Dussehra meeting, Manoj Jarange Patil will take a pledge that he will not fast from now on.
