Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange, who has been on an “indefinite hunger strike” since August 29, has called for a meeting with Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde before he agrees to end his fast. Jarange`s demand came following a phone call conversation with CM Shinde on Tuesday night.
State Industries Minister Uday Samant met with Jarange late last night, attempting to address the activist`s concerns. Earlier on Tuesday, Jarange expressed his willingness to conclude his hunger strike, which has garnered significant attention, but he insisted that he would not vacate the protest site at Antarwali Sarati village in Jalna district until the Maharashtra government begins issuing Kunbi caste certificates to the Maratha community from the Marathwada region.
