Despite the sanctioned reservation for the Sakal Maratha community, Pimpri Chinchwad, prepares to hold a Bandh. The implementation of reservation has been delayed by the state government, which prompted the bandh. In response, Manoj Jarange Patil has initiated a hunger strike for the past three days, demanding a special session of the state legislature to address the issue. To show support for Patil’s cause, a bandh was announced in Pimpri-Chinchwad city on Wednesday by the Sakal Maratha community.

The bandh has garnered backing from the Maratha Kranti Morcha and Sakal Maratha Samaj, prompting a scheduled rally within the city on Wednesday. This action follows previous demonstrations in Mumbai, where Chief Minister Eknath Shinde had initially agreed to the demands of Patil and his associates, leading to the withdrawal of their hunger strike and suspension of agitation.

The objectives now include the conversion of issued ordinances into law, withdrawal of cases against reservation protests across Maharashtra, and the fulfillment of promises made to the Maratha community. Patil’s ongoing hunger strike underscores the urgency for a special legislative session.

Wednesday’s city shutdown aims for peaceful advocacy, with a significant two-wheeler and four-wheeler rally organized by the Sakal Maratha Samaj of Pimpri-Chinchwad city and Maval taluka. Starting with a tribute to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj at Dange Chowk Thergaon, the rally will proceed through various landmarks including Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Chowk, Chinchwad Station, and Vadgaon.

Led by organizers such as Satish Kale, Sachin Barne, and Prakash Jadhav, along with numerous activists, the rally symbolizes a collective push for the realization of Maratha community rights and demands.
