Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: The issue of OBC reservation has been hotting up for the last few months. On the one hand, the Maratha community has demanded reservation from the OBC, while the OBC community is opposing this demand (Maratha Reservation). Prakash Ambedkar has made his stand clear on the issue of reservation. He announced that the Aarakshan Bachao Yatra for OBC reservation will be held from July 26.
Addressing a press conference, Prakash Ambedkar said, "We will start OBC Bachao Yatra from July 26. The train will run between Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Kolhapur. Many OBC organizations requested to take up the fight of OBCs. The current situation is terrible. The name change will be remembered. In the context of progressive Maharashtra, the OBC vs Maratha debate has been raised by the rich Marathas. OBC leaders are scared.
On the other hand, Manoj Jarange Patil's movement for poor Marathas is going on. Power belongs to the rich. They don't give reservation to poor Marathas. Companionship is a bitch. From the records available now, the Maratha community has been given Kunabi certificates. It should be cancelled. He also said.
An all-party meeting was called. The meeting was attended by leaders of the Congress, NCP, Shiv Sena and the MNS. There will be no solution until the Thackeray group, the Congress and the NCP take a stand. We had to start from Dadar Chaityabhoomi with social organization. Shahu Maharaj had announced the reservation from July 26. Therefore, we have decided to pay obeisance to Shahu Maharaj and take out a yatra. The yatra will culminate at Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar on August 7 or 8, he said.
