Massive March For SC Sub Categorisation
The mega march, which began at Annabhau Sathe Chowk on Monday morning, passed through main roads before culminating at the Zilla Parishad (old Collectorate), where a memorandum addressed to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis was submitted to the district administration.
Addressing the gathering, speakers urged the Maharashtra government to implement SC sub-categorisation without delay, arguing that the benefits of reservation must reach the most deprived sections within the Scheduled Castes in proportion to their population. They said the demand was aimed at ensuring social, educational, and economic justice in line with constitutional principles.
