The Bharatiya Janata Party proposes to stall the road traffic across the state on June 26 to get the political reservation of the Other Backward Classes (OBC) restored. The party leaders met on Friday to mount pressure on the Maha Vikas Aghadi government, and decided to move the court, if needed, to get the forthcoming local self-government elections stayed.

“OBCs must get their rights restored. We will not let the elections take place if the state government doesn’t do anything about it. We will ensure that the MVA government does it and if it fails, we move the court,” said opposition leader Devendra Fadnavis.
