MUMBAI: Maharashtra food and civil supplies minister and OBC neta Chhagan Bhujbal has written to CM Devendra Fadnavis, demanding the latest govt resolution (GR) on Marathas applying for Kunbi (OBC) certificates be scrapped altogether or changed. The GR was issued by the state on Sept 2 in order to get Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange to call off his five-day hunger strike at Mumbai’s Azad Maidan.Bhujbal’s letter comes despite Fadnavis speaking to him and clarifying the GR would not encroach on OBC quota. The NCP minister is also firm in his resolve about challenging it in court. The letter asks for withdrawal of the govt resolution or removal of ambiguities and vagueness in it to avoid a chaotic situation in the state.
