Demand for Muslim reservation in Maharashtra
The All india Ulema Board (AIUB) warned last saturday that the Muslim community in maharashtra would
launch a major agitation if the state government did not promise 5 percent reservation in education. AIUB's
demand comes amid the ongoing maratha reservation movements across the state, with Dhangars demanding
change of classification from NT (C) to st and OBCs demanding to protect their existing reservation. Apart
from reservation, the conference also demanded introduction of Arabic language teaching in all urdu medium
schools of the state.
