Maharashtra Minister Girish Mahajan rejects Maroj Jarange's demand for "sage soyare" inclusion in Maratha reservation, citing legal scrutiny concerns.

Maharashtra Minister Girish Mahajan states that activist Maroj Jarange's demand for inclusion of "sage soyare" in Maratha reservation notification will not pass legal scrutiny. Mahajan criticizes Uddhav Thackeray-led government for failing to defend Maratha quota and accuses opposition of using issue for political gains. BJP supports quota for Maratha community without altering OBCs quota, but considers Jarange's demands unlikely to hold up legally.
