Thousands Join Mega March In Latur Demanding SC Sub-Categorisation, Warn Of Mumbai March

Thousands of people from 59 Scheduled Caste communities marched in Latur on July 27 demanding SC sub-categorisation.

A memorandum addressed to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis was submitted to the district administration.

Protesters argue benefits of reservation must reach the most deprived sections within Scheduled Castes proportionally.

Organisers cited the Supreme Court's ruling empowering states to introduce sub-categorisation.

If the Maharashtra government does not act, organisers plan a massive march to Mumbai on September 29.
