Manoj Jalanchi Patil.
Maratha activist Manoj Jarange surprised everyone with his decision during the Maharashtra assembly election campaign. Today is the last day to withdraw nominations, but not before Jalanji has announced his withdrawal from the election. He also appealed to those who had filled in the candidate application form. Jalanji asked these people to withdraw their nominations as well. Mahayuti’s tension increased over Mahavikas Aghadi’s due to Manoj Jarange Patil’s sudden U-turn More.
According to Marathi TV9, Manoj Jarange said that politics is not our main business and therefore we do not support any political party. People across the country have seen what happened to those who held 400-rupee slogans. Even though we have retreated, there is no doubt that the dominance of the Maratha community as a constituency will continue.
Impact on Marathwada and Western Maharashtra
Manoj Jarange Patil is most influential in Marathwada and Western Maharashtra. Jalanchi Patil attacked the BJP over the reservation issue during the Lok Sabha elections. This dealt a big blow to the BJP. Marathwada has a total of eight Lok Sabha seats, out of which Mahayuthi candidates lost six seats. The Jalanji factor is also seen taking place in western Maharashtra. Mahayutty’s candidate lost in Solapur, Mada, Ahmednagar and other constituencies.
Meanwhile, if Jarange Patil fields a candidate in the assembly elections, the Maratha, Muslim and Dalit votes will be split. Mahavikas Aghadi must have lost the most. But Jarange Patil has withdrawn from the election, so Mahavikas Aghadi is likely to get Muslim and Dalit votes. This could impact the major leagues. The nationalist Sharad Pawar group has sensed the yellow factor and fielded only Maratha candidates in many seats.
Get bookings from Maratha community
Maratha reservation activist Manoj Jarange Patil fought a battle for reservation for the Maratha community. After his movement, the government offered separate reservation to the Maratha community but Jarange Patil still insisted on his demand that we only need reservation for OBC. But this request of Jarange Patil was not accepted. After this, Manoj Jalanchi Patil decided to contest the assembly elections.
It is believed that many veterans had to face defeat due to the yellow factor in the Lok Sabha elections. Therefore, as soon as Jalanchi Patil announced his candidacy, many stalwarts started meeting him. After the election results were announced, both five-time MP Hasan Mushrif and his rival Samarjit Ghatge were in court in Jalanji.
Sujay Vikhe Patil also met Jarange
Apart from this, the defeated BJP candidate from Ahmednagar Lok Sabha constituency Sujay Vikh Patil also met Jaranj Patil. Many important leaders like Industries Minister Uday Samant, Chief Minister OSD Mangesh Chivate, Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil, Beed MP Bajrang Sonawane, Dhananjay Munde have met Manoj Jarange Patil. Many of these leaders want Manoj Jalanchi Patil to nominate them for the elections. However, things have changed now and Jalanji has withdrawn from the elections. He also said he would not campaign for any political party.
