Maharashtra: Maratha Reservation Activist Manoj Jarange Announces Suspension of Hunger Strike at 5 PM

Manoj Jarange Patil, who has been on a hunger strike for the past nine days on the issue of Maratha reservation, announced today that he is suspending his hunger strike. While talking to his well-wishers, he stated that, "Today we are deciding to suspend the fast. For the people who are coming here to meet us, we will wait for a while and suspend the fast at 4 to 5 o'clock. Now, if not by fast, we will sit in power and get reservation and straighten the troublemakers," said Jarange Patil.

On the occasion of Marathwada Mukti Sangram Day, Manoj Jarange started his hunger strike from midnight on September 17. "We don't want to bombard in our name again. We are giving the government a last chance; if the demands are not accepted now, then there is no use in saying anything later," Manoj Jarange had warned at the beginning of the protest. However, as there was no solution to their demands in the last nine days, today Jarange Patil has decided to suspend his hunger strike and signaled to enter into election politics.
