As Jarange-Patil ends fast, government cautious on OBC quota and Satara Gazette
Manoj Jarange-Patil ended his fast after the government promised to look into Maratha reservation demands. Chief Minister Fadnavis said, "The government is committed to Maratha reservation. At the same time, it has ensured the OBC quota is not diluted." He stressed that decisions must pass legal checks, while OBC groups warned of backlash if their quota is touched.
