Maharashtra minister and veteran Other Backward Class leader (OBC) leader Chhagan Bhujbal on Wednesday again slammed the state government over a draft notification on the Maratha quota, claiming lakhs of affidavits are being submitted to make a "backdoor entry" into the OBC quota and encroach upon their rights.
Bhujbal and Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange are locked in a bitter war of words, with the Bhujbal accusing the government of surrendering before Jarange.
