Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has cancelled his Monday's visit to a temple in Pandharpur town in view of the proposed protest by the Maratha community seeking reservation in government jobs.

As part of a long-standing tradition, the chief minister every year offers prayers at the temple dedicated to Lord Vitthal and Rukmini at Pandharpur in Solapur district, located around 400 km from here, on the occasion of 'Ashadhi Ekadashi'.
