Activist Vinod Patil, who has filed petitions in courts concerning the Maratha quota, on Wednesday (September 3, 2025), called the Government Resolution (GR) on granting Kunbi certificates to eligible community members “completely useless”.

The GR, issued after Maratha quota movement leader Manoj Jarange launched a hunger strike in Mumbai, will not benefit the community in any meaningful way, claimed Mr. Patil.
