Differences have emerged between Maratha activist Manoj Jarange-Patil and the Maharashtra government regarding the deadline for resolving the Maratha reservation issue. While Jarange-Patil insists on a December 24 deadline, the government had stated it had until January 2. The government aims to avoid further friction with the community and remains committed to resolving the issue in consultation with Jarange-Patil.

Protests demanding reservation for the Maratha community in Maharashtra turn violent, as activists express anger toward Maratha politicians. The state government faces mounting pressure to address the demands, which have divided the community and triggered a security crisis.

The Maratha community's protest for reservation takes a violent turn as demonstrators target the residences and offices of several legislators in Beed and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar districts. The ongoing agitation, spurred by a hunger strike led by Manoj Jarange-Patil, demands reservation benefits for all Marathas under the Other Backward Classes (OBC) category, resulting in violence and political resignations.
