Mumbai: Maratha community members resumed their ‘silent protest march’, demanding quota in education and government jobs. Rajya Sabha member Chhatrapati Sambhajiraje on Friday in Nanded, home town of Ashok Chavan, minister for PWD and chairperson of the state cabinet sub-committee for Maratha quota, targeted the Thackeray government. Coming down heavily on the Centre too, he said, “We have nothing to do with allegations and counter-allegations exchanged between state and Centre, but the state should ensure its responsibility of submitting the report proving the community socially and educationally backward and Centre must relax the cap of 50% reservation and perform its responsibility to provide Maratha quota.” tnn
