Marath quota activist Manoj Jarange on Tuesday accused the Maharashtra government of failing to fulfil its promises to the Maratha community and warned of launching a fresh hunger strike in Mumbai on August 29, reported PTI.
Speaking to media persons at Antarwali Sarthi village in Jalna district, Jarange alleged that the government has deceived the Maratha community.
The activist has launched multiple hunger strikes demanding that all Marathas be recognised as Kunbis, an agrarian caste classified under the Other Backward Classes (OBC) category and reservation in government jobs and education for the politically influential community, reported PTI.
