Bandh across Maharashtra over Maratha reservations, Mumbai area exempt

File picture.

Maratha outfits demanding reservation are going on a Maharashtra-wide bandh on Thursday. They have however announced that it would be limited to a demonstration in the Mumbai region.

The bandh calls comes despite an assurance from Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis that the Maratha community would get the quota it demands in government jobs and educational institutions by November.

The earlier bandh, on July 25, had descended into violence in Mumbai.
