Those who understand that society is not a vegetable and strong leadership is not a shopkeeper, always fight for the undoubted welfare of society regardless of success or failure.
The feeling that the society owes something came to the mind, and the leadership can speed it up. When the society is united with the right leadership, the society puts its strength to the test and the society comes forward to provide financial support. .What is their crime and fault if lakhs of Maratha community members have done the same?
It is a fundamental right to agitate for self-interest and social interest. Maratha society, suffering from the problems of exploitation and lagging behind in educational and economic fields, was struggling for reservation for many years, but the issue of reservation was kept in the framework of the law.
However, the fact that the Maharashtra government was not coming forward to give reservation to the Maratha community through legal and charter means, is it the fault of the Maratha community? Giving the carrot of reservation to Marathas and other communities and keeping the reservation issue of all the related communities hanging for one reason or another, this is the type of rulers and political party leaders who made Marathas and other community members to struggle for reservation, will not be forgotten.
If Manoj Jarange Patal had not taken up the issue of Maratha reservation seriously and with equal vigor for selfless and undoubted public interest, would the Maharashtra government have passed the resolution giving 10 percent reservation to the Maratha community in the Legislative Assembly? The present muddy political environment is such that the talking leaders and ministers should also be studied.
Leaders and Ministers who do not speak on Maratha reservation, Manoj Jarange Patil unintentionally speaks ill of Home Minister Devendra Fadnavis, then some MLAs and Ministers become active without wasting time and break down on Manoj Jarange Patal and cooperate till SIT investigation is started.
Manoj Jarange Patal retracted his unintentional words and apologized. After this the matter should have been closed.
However, the fact that Lok Sabha and Assembly elections cannot be won without disturbing and discrediting Manoj Jarange Patal, can it be a political strategy? It is seen that the Maratha community needs to focus on this.
Sambhaji aka Manohar Bhide, former governor Bhagatsinh Koshari and no.Chandrakantdada Patil tried to create discord in the society and disturb the state of Maharashtra by making indecent comments on various saints and great men.
At that time, the ministers and MLAs did not think of conducting an SIT investigation and did not even show the courage to take criminal action against those concerned. The citizens of the country had experienced the insensitive and duty-free ministers and MLAs of Maharashtra state like never before.
SIT investigation should definitely be done against the Maratha community members. But the Maharashtra government should first see that none of their rights will be violated and false crimes will not be imposed on them.
There are political signs that if there is an attempt to flood the society, the current ministers and MLAs will never become people’s representatives (Khasdars/MLAs) going forward.
If we understand that the reservation is an issue of existence and self-respect of the Maratha society, then the Maratha society will never forgive the doubles? It is difficult to comment on this.
