Manoj Jarange begins march over Maratha quota row
Even as Maratha quota activist Manoj Jarange began his march to Mumbai, CM Eknath Shinde held a review meeting on progress on the quota and asked for the survey to establish backwardness of the Maratha community to be conducted on a war footing in 8 days. State excise minister Shambhuraje Desai appealed to Jarange to defer his march and said government is ready to talk.
