Mumbai: Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) vice president Saleem Sarang has demanded political reservation for Muslims in Maharashtra besides in jobs and education.
Sarang is one of those who had been demanding reservation for Muslims for decades.
However, the fresh demand includes political reservation.
“None of the big parties fielded any Muslim candidate. There is not a single Muslim MP from Maharashtra. There is not a single Muslim minister in the Narendra Modi government,” Sarang said. (with Agency inputs)
