In relation to this matter, Pankaja Munde, a prominent leader from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), has made a significant declaration regarding the Maratha reservation. Munde has expressed her commitment to refrain from wearing the traditional Maratha turban (pheta) until the Maratha community in Maharashtra is granted reservation.
