Maratha Quota Stir: 'Show Me The GR, Will Vacate By 9 PM' - Jarange Patil On Govt's Two-Month Timeline

Maratha quote activist Manoj Jarange Patil on Tuesday has agreed to a two-month deadline by the Maharashtra government to formally recognise Marathas and Kunbis as the same community.

Jarange Patil, who has been protesting in Mumbai since the past week along with thousands of his supporters, said he would vacate the city by 9 pm if the government resolution on the two-month timeline is submitted to him. The activist made these remarks while addressing the gathering at Azad Maidan.

This comes as three senior Maharashtra government ministers visited Azad Maidan to initiate talks with Jarange Patil over his demands.

According to him, the government has pledged to provided compensation within a week to the families of those that lost their lives during the quota agitation. He also added that the state will withdraw the cases filed against the protesters involved in the stir.
