Coming down hard on Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, an editorial in Saamna - the mouthpiece of Shiv Sena - has questioned why he and the BJP government in New Delhi cannot resolve the ongoing crisis related to the Maratha reservation issue. Urging Fadnavis to stand up and act, the editorial in Saamna accused the state and central government of looking away. "Why can't CM Fadnavis go to Delhi, meet the Prime Minister and find a solution to the Maratha reservation issue. PM Modi is often not in Delhi and he is not interested in matters related to the state and the country. To crush protests has become the policy of the government."
