On Tuesday, activist Manoj Jarange refused to take intravenous fluids despite doctors' advice, as his indefinite fast for Maratha reservation entered its fourth day. Jarange is asking that Marathas be given OBC reservation and has launched a new hunger strike in his village, Antarwali Sarati, in central Maharashtra's Jalna district, reported PTI. 

According to the report, a staff from the government rural hospital checked him in the morning. A doctor told the reporters that Maratha Quota activist Manoj Jarange's blood pressure and sugar levels were low, and he was instructed to get intravenous fluids. However, Jarange declined.
