A curfew has been imposed in Ambad taluka of Maharashtra's Jalna district considering the law and order situation in view of the ongoing agitation for Maratha reservation by activist Manoj Jarange, as per an order issued by the district administration.
Jalna Collector Srikrushna Panchal in the order said Mr. Jarange announced on February 25 that he will go to Mumbai and agitate over his demand of reservation for the Maratha community. There is a possibility that people may come to Antarwali Sarati village in Jalna, where the activist has been staging a hunger strike, to stop him (from going to Mumbai).
