Activist rejects CM's plan to grant quota in 2 phases

IndiaTimes Monday, 30 October 2023
Activist Manoj Jarange-Patil rejected Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's proposal to grant Marathas reservation in two phases and continued his indefinite hunger strike for equal reservation rights for the entire Maratha community. On the sixth day of his hunger strike in Jalna district, Jarange's health worsened, leading to his collapse while attempting to stand on stage. He expressed concerns about potential violence during the protest and suspected involvement of politicians from the ruling party.
