As the agitation for the Maratha reservation led by Manoj Jarange continues to dominate headlines, other communities are beginning to voice their own long-pending demands. In a significant political development, Vijay Wadettiwar has called upon senior OBC leader Chhagan Bhujbal for a meeting to discuss the Maratha reservation issue. Meanwhile, the Koli community has also stepped forward with a fresh set of demands, seeking justice and recognition for their members.

The Koli community, including the Mahadev Koli, Adivasi Koli, and Malhar Koli sub-groups, is urging the government to immediately issue caste certificates to eligible citizens. Leaders argue that despite being listed under the Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes, many community members continue to face bureaucratic hurdles in obtaining official documents.
