Sena criticises Maha govt on Maratha reservation issue, alleges delay deliberate

Criticising Devendra Fadnavis-led Maharashtra Government for its delay on Maratha reservation issue, Shiv Sena on Saturday has questioned the decision of formation of yet another Cabinet sub-committee on the issue.

Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana in its edit published on Saturday criticised Devendra Fadnavis-led government on the Maratha reservation issue. It also pointed out that one road show by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe resulted in laying the foundation for bullet train, but silent marches by the Maratha community did not yield any result so far.

Sena on Saturday also alleged that Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has provided Rs 40,000 crores in bullet train project, but has not given a single rupee for the Maratha community.
