Navi Mumbai, Sept. 5 -- Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday reached out to the state's Other Backward Classes (OBC) community, assuring that the government order to expedite Kunbi caste certificates to eligible Marathas would not harm their interests. The chief minister's remarks come a day after prominent OBC leaders, including food and civil supplies minister Chhagan Bhujbal, spoke about approaching the court against the government resolution (GR) issued this week. "I have discussed the matter with him [Chhagan Bhujbal] and assured that the GR does not harm the OBC community in any way," Fadnavis said, insisting that the GR was not a blanket order. "This GR does not give a blanket reservation. It is only a GR of evidence. We have not accepted the demand that all Marathas should be included in the OBC category. We have only facilitated the path for those who have valid evidence," he told reporters on the sidelines of the inauguration of the Bharat Mumbai Container Terminal (BMCT) at Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA). Fadnavis detailed the specific provisions in the GR to achieve this objective, pointing to the unique historical context of the Marathwada region. "In Marathwada, there was no British rule; it had Nizam rule. Hence, there are no British-era proofs which are available elsewhere. The proofs here are available in the Hyderabad gazette, and we have taken them," he said, declaring that "only those who really deserve it will get it and fraud will not be allowed." Fadnavis reiterated his government's commitment to protect the OBC quota. "One thing OBC leaders also know is that till our government is in power, there will be no injustice to OBCs. One community's reservation will not be given to another community," he asserted....
