Amid claims by Other Backward Class (OBC) leader and Maharashtra Minister Chhagan Bhujbal that he had reportedly resigned from the State Cabinet last November over the Maratha quota issue, Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis said that Mr. Bhujbal’s resignation had not been accepted.
Mr. Bhujbal, who is at loggerheads with Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange-Patil, had made the sensational claim of his alleged resignation at an OBC rally held in Ahmednagar on Saturday.
However, soon after Mr. Bhujbal’s revelation, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis clarified that his resignation had not been accepted.
