Despite his declining health, pro-Maratha quota campaigner Manoj Jarange Patil escalated his protest by urging community members to initiate a fast unto death across all villages in Maharashtra, starting from Sunday.
The Maratha activist fervently appealed to the State government, stressing the gravity of their agitation and the urgent need for reservations in education and government jobs.
Mr. Jarange Patil, whose indefinite hunger strike in Jalna’s Antarwali Sarati village entered its fourth day, urged members of the Maratha community not to resort to extreme steps for the sake of reservation.
