The Maharashtra government has announced a major decision to simplify the process of issuing Kunbi, Kunbi-Maratha, or Maratha-Kunbi caste certificates to members of the Maratha community following Manoj Jarange Pati’s indefinite fast at the Azad Maidan. The move follows the recommendations of the Justice Sandeep Shinde (Retd.) committee, which was tasked with studying the Hyderabad, Satara, and Bombay gazettes.
