Maratha Reservation: 'Center cannot remain a spectator, solve the matters', Sharad Pawar roared on reservation dispute
Maratha Reservation: When asked about the growing Maratha-OBC conflict on the issue of reservation in Maharashtra, Sharad Pawar said that there is only one solution to this and that the Center should take the initiative to resolve it.
Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar once again attacked the Center on Thursday. He said that the Center cannot remain a mere spectator. It should take the initiative to resolve matters related to the demand for reservation by the Maratha community and Other Backward Classes (OBC).
When asked about the growing Maratha-OBC conflict on the issue of reservation in Maharashtra, Pawar said that there is only one solution to this and that the Center should take the initiative to resolve it. For this, amendments are needed in the law and the policies of the state and the Center. The former Union Minister was talking to reporters in Baramati in the Pune district of Maharashtra.
In February this year, the Maharashtra Assembly unanimously approved a bill giving the Maratha community an independent 10 percent reservation in education and jobs under a separate category. The agitators, however, are demanding reservation under the OBC group.
