When exactly does the state government plan to decide on the Maratha reservation issue? This question is being raised not by the Maratha community but by First Year Junior College (FYJC) students and their parents after their admissions too got stalled by an SC order. The stalled process has led to frustration among children as their peers have begun their new lives. 

We begin every day by checking the FYJC admissions website. The least they can do is keep updating us on the website," said Bela Thosani, a parent, adding that it is bizarre that a batch of students is going to face academic losses for non-academic reasons.
