Maharashtra Assembly passes Maratha Reservation Bill

 Maharashtra State Socially and Educationally Backward Act 2024 reserves 10% seats in educational institutions and government jobs for the Maratha community. 

Maharashtra State Socially and Educationally Backward Act 2024 reserves 10% seats in educational institutions and government jobs for the Maratha community.

Maharashtra Assembly, in a day-long special session on Tuesday, passed a bill granting 10 per cent reservation for the Maratha community in educational institutions and government jobs.&nbsp;
The Maharashtra State Socially and Educationally Backward Act 2024 will be reviewed 10 years after the reservation comes into effect.&nbsp;
Chief Minister Eknath Shinde-led cabinet, earlier, accepted a report by the Maharashtra State Backward Class Commission recommending the reservation, after a socioeconomic survey of nearly 2.5 crore families.
One of the key findings in the bill tabled by CM Shinde underscores that the population of the Maratha community in the state is 28 per cent.
Out of the total Maratha families that are below poverty line, 21.22 per cent hold the yellow ration cards. It is higher than the state's average of 17.4 per cent.
The state government's survey undertaken between January and February this year also found that 84 per cent of the Maratha community families do not fall under the progressed category, hence they are eligible for reservation as per the Indra Sawhney case, as per the bill Out of total farmers' suicides in Maharashtra, 94 per cent are from Maratha families, the bill noted.

As per the bill, prior approval of the Assembly has to be obtained and the motion has to be placed before the immediate session of the House before initiating any inquiry against the chief minister.

Maharashtra first state to pass The Lokayukta Bill 2022

As per the bill, prior approval of the Assembly has to be obtained and the motion has to be placed before the immediate session of the House before initiating any inquiry against the chief minister.

Maharashtra assembly on Wednesday passed the Lokayukta Bill 2022, which brings the chief minister and council of ministers under the ambit of the anti-corruption ombudsman.
The bill was passed without discussion as the opposition had staged a walkout over the alleged scam in the Teachers Entrance Test.
Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis termed the bill a historic legislation, adding Maharashtra is the first state to have such a law.
As per the bill, prior approval of the Assembly has to be obtained and the motion has to be placed before the immediate session of the House before initiating any inquiry against the chief minister.
Such motion shall be passed by not less than two-thirds of the total members of the assembly, states the bill, which was tabled in the House on Monday.&nbsp;

Centre should declare 'Karnataka-occupied Maharashtra' as Union Territory: Ex-CM Uddhav Thackeray

Speaking in the Upper House on the raging boundary dispute between Maharashtra and Karnataka, Shiv Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray said it is not just a case of language and border, but of "humanity"

Former Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray said in the state Legislative Council that the central government should declare "Karnataka-occupied Maharashtra" areas as a Union Territory.
Speaking in the Upper House on the raging boundary dispute between Maharashtra and Karnataka, Shiv Sena leader Thackeray said it is not just a case of language and border, but of "humanity".
He said Marathi-speaking people have been residing in the border villages from generations. Their daily life, language and lifestyle is Marathi, he said.
Till the issue is pending before the Supreme Court, the "Karnataka-occupied Maharashtra should be declared as a Union Territory by the central government," he said.
Thackeray also asked whether Maharashtra Chief Minister (Eknath Shinde) has said a word about the issue and questioned the state government's stand on it.
The matter is sub-judice and there is a status quo on it, but who is spoiling the atmosphere? he asked, apparently targeting the Karnataka government.
The Karnataka legislature has reiterated the state's stand that the border issue is a settled one, and not an inch of land will be given to the neighbouring state.

Thackeray questioned the central government's role as "guardian" of both the states.
"Has the central government acted as guardian. We expect the central government to act as the guardian," he said.
He also said (members of) both the Houses should watch the movie "Case for Justice" and read the Mahajan Commission report (on the border issue).
When the Belagavi Municipal Corporation passed a resolution to merge with Maharashtra, action was taken against the corporation, Thackeray said. Similarly, some gram panchayats of Maharashtra had demanded a merger with Telangana. Does the Shinde government have little courage to even act against these gram panchayats? he asked.
Rajya Sabha member and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut was present in the visitors' gallery of the House.
The border issue dates back to 1957 after the reorganisation of states on linguistic lines.
Maharashtra laid claim to Belagavi, which was part of the erstwhile Bombay Presidency, as it has a sizeable Marathi-speaking population. It also laid claim to more than 800 Marathi-speaking villages which are currently part of Karnataka.
Karnataka maintains the demarcation done on linguistic lines as per the States Reorganisation Act and the 1967 Mahajan Commission Report as final

Meanwhile, in the contested Belagavi region, where the Karnataka assembly session is taking place, Section 144 was imposed to prevent demonstrations and large gatherings.
The border dispute dates back to the 1960s after the reorganisation of states on linguistic lines. Maharashtra laid claim to Belagavi which was part of the erstwhile Bombay Presidency as it has a sizeable Marathi-speaking population. It also laid claim to 80 Marathi-speaking villages which are currently part of Karnataka.
