Devendra Fadnavis reminded people of the history of the Maratha reservation and launched a sharp attack on his opponents.

The 'Rasta Roko' protest is to demand the inclusion of all Marathas as Kunbi, a caste in Maharashtra falling under the Other Backward Caste.

The Maharashtra State Socially and Educationally Backward Bill 2024 received unanimous support in the assembly. Maratha Quota activist Manoj Jarange has refused to end the strike arguing that it did not meet his community's expectation.

The bill, which was tabled by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and supported by all parties, will now be sent to the Legislative Council for approval before becoming a law.

Patil praised Chief Minister Eknath Shinde for his efforts and said he would end his fast with juice offered by him on Saturday. 

Jarange Patil, who was in Navi Mumbai, also demanded the Maharashtra government to withdraw all the cases filed by the police against the Maratha Reservation protestors. 

Jarange pointed out that the state government has not withdrawn cases against Marathas who participated in the protests for reservation.

The Marathas have been demanding reservation for decades, citing their social and educational backwardness due to agrarian distress and lack of opportunities.
