Protesters Challenge Sule Amidst Calls for Immediate Special Assembly Session Regarding the Maratha Quota Issue
In a tense turn of events at Azad Maidan, Supriya Sule, a leader from the NCP (Shiv Sena Party), faced protests and allegations from Maratha activists. The incident resulted in considerable chaos and a brief period of heightened tension.
During her visit, Supriya Sule sat on a dais with Manoj Jarange, who is observing an indefinite fast for reservation under the OBC category for Marathas. However, the protestors accused Supriya Sule's party supremo, Sharad Pawar, of neglecting the Maratha community's concerns.
Some protesters blocked Supriya Sule's car and raised slogans against her father. The situation escalated as some demonstrators attempted to throw a water bottle at Supriya Sule during her departure. Her vehicle was reportedly attacked by agitated demonstrators.
Following the incident, Supriya Sule left the location after security personnel cleared her vehicle. She later demanded a special session of the Maharashtra Assembly to address the reservation issue.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis condemned the actions of the protestors, stating that treating leaders with dignity is essential when they visit protest sites. He also expressed that creating chaos or throwing objects at leaders is unacceptable and will not resolve any issues.
BJP MLC Praveen Darekar expressed dissatisfaction with Sharad Pawar's stance on the Maratha quota issue, stating that he did not take any concrete decisions during his tenure in government. Darekar also noted that many Maratha youths are unhappy with Sharad Pawar's approach to the Maratha quota issue.
It's important to note that the article does not provide information about the connection between Supriya Sule and the incident involving Rahul Gandhi and infants' deaths in a hospital, nor does it provide information about the location of the incident.
Sharad Pawar, however, has long addressed the concerns of the Maratha community in Maharashtra. At Azad Maidan, he continues to be a focal point of the protests, with Maratha activists demanding action on the Maratha quota issue.
In conclusion, the incident at Azad Maidan highlights the ongoing tension and unresolved issues surrounding the Maratha quota issue in Maharashtra. The protests against Supriya Sule serve as a reminder of the strong feelings held by Maratha activists and the need for effective and timely action from political leaders.
