Pro-Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange Patil on Tuesday accused Maharashtra Minister and prominent OBC leader Chhagan Bhujbal of creating a rift among various communities.
He asked if the provocative language used at Mr. Bhujbal’s rallies was the policy of the Eknath Shinde government on the Maratha reservation.
Stating that irrespective of the Maharashtra government’s stand on Mr. Bhujbal, the Marathas would ensure they get the reservation, Mr. Patil said that the Minister was disturbing the peace in society.
Meanwhile, deputy chairperson of the State Legislative Council Neelam Gorhe said on Tuesday that the Maratha reservation issue will be discussed during the Winter Session of the Maharashtra legislature, which will start in Nagpur on December 7.
