Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Dhananjay Munde has demanded that elections to the local municipal bodies in Maharashtra should not be held without providing reservation to the OBCs, and claimed that the state Backward Classes Commission's report on quota for the community is ready.

Taking to Twitter, Dhananjay Munde said: "The Backward Classes Commission set up by the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government on OBC quota has prepared its report. It is our firm stand that without announcing the OBC reservation, elections to the civic bodies should not be held in the state."
