Protests by the Maratha, OBC, and Dhangar communities are likely to influence voting patterns in Maharashtra's upcoming assembly elections, as the ruling BJP struggles with anti-incumbency sentiment following poor performance in previous polls. Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange has publicly condemned Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for failing to address the community's demands for reservations, claiming his actions have harmed Maratha youth and unity. As the election date approaches, Jarange has called for a united voting effort from the Maratha community to ensure their demands are recognized, stating that the community's political future lies in their hands. He accused the government of undermining Maratha interests by adding 17 other castes to the OBC category while neglecting Maratha reservations. The assembly elections will be held on November 20, with Jarange urging the community not to vote for any party but for their children's future. The situation highlights the growing tensions between the Maratha and OBC communities over reservation issues, which could impact the election outcomes significantly.
