I won’t let a single kunbi record be cancelled: Manoj Jarange

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar:

Maratha reservation leader Manoj Jarange warned the government saying, “OBC Minister Chhagan Bhujbal and other OBC leaders demand cancellation of Kunbi records of Maratha community identified by the committee appointed by the state government. If you cancel even one Kunbi record based on their demands, the government will suffer the consequences. »

The state government accepted the demands of OBC leaders Laxman Hake and Navnath Waghmare while calling off their hunger strike in Wadigodri. OBC leaders accused the government of issuing certificates based on fake Kunbi records of the Maratha community and demanded their cancellation. The government delegation included Minister for Food and Civil Supplies Chhagan Bhujbal and other ministers present on the occasion. In this context, Manoj Jarange, treated in a private hospital in the city, spoke to the press on Saturday.

He said: “None of our files are false. However, canceling the files based on their demands is wrong. Canceling Kunbi’s files will cost the government dearly.” He also questioned who was spreading caste hatred between the Maratha and OBC communities. If we speak, we are labeled casteist, but can you behave as you wish?” he asked. “Even if I lose my life for my community, I will not stop fighting for the children in my community,” he said.

Bhujbal openly declared that those on hunger strike in Wadigodri were his supporters. Jarange accused the government of orchestrating the hunger strike. He also called on Maratha leaders of various political parties to unite, taking note of the manner in which OBC leaders came together. If you do not unite, the children of the Maratha community will suffer, Jarange warned.

How can their language of cutting off limbs be acceptable?

Kunbi leader Taywade on Saturday commented on the language used by Bhujbal. “Taywade is a senior leader and he is expected to deliver equal justice. When you were on the platform, OBC leaders talked about mutilation and used abusive language through that platform. Now when I speak, you find my language objectionable,” Jarange stressed.

Creating discord between Dhangar and Maratha communities

“What harm was caused to the Dhangar community when our records were found? When the Dhangar community received benefits, did we oppose it? Then why is the Dhangar community opposing us ?” ” questioned Jarange, accusing Bhujbal of creating discord between the Dhangar and Maratha communities.
