#MarathaQuota : Supriya Sule Blames Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis For Police Action In Jalna On Protestors
NCP leader and Baramati MP Supriya Sule has held Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis responsible for the last week’s police action on Maratha quota agitators in Jalna, and alleged the state and Union governments were not serious about the issue of reservations for various communities.
Addressing a press conference as reported by PTI , she also urged the Centre to convene a special session of Parliament to find a solution to the issue of reservations.
The police baton-charged and lobbed tear gas shells to disperse a violent mob at Antarwali Sarathi village in Jalna district on September 1 after protesters allegedly refused to let authorities shift an activist on a hunger strike for the Maratha quota demand to a hospital. Several persons, including 40 police personnel, were injured and more than 15 state transport buses set ablaze in the violence.
