Implement reservation notification or will field 288 candidates in Maharashtra assembly polls: Jarange-Patil
Maratha movement leader Manoj Jarange-Patil will field candidates on all the 288 Maharashtra legislative assembly seats, likely to go to polls later this year, if “sage-soyare” notification to get reservation for the community under the Other Backward Classes is not implemented immediately. “If the sage-soyare notification is not implemented and if the State government doesn’t agree that Marathas and Kunbis are the same castes, then I will surely field 288 candidates across religions and castes in the upcoming legislative assembly elections,” Mr. Jarange-Patil reasserted. Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi’s Founder and President Prakash Ambedkar had sought an alliance for Lok Sabha elections with Mr. Jarange-Patil, but it did not take shape. A few weeks ago, Mr. Ambedkar in a public statement had offered to have an alliance with Maha Vikas Aghadi for Maharashtra legislative assembly election, a call on which is yet to be taken.
