A local Sarpanch in Phulambri, part of the Aurangabad district,┬аchoose an unusual and unorthodox method of protesting┬аagainst the government by purposefully setting fire to his own car. On Friday, a peaceful demonstration calling for Maratha reservation in Maharashtra's┬аJalna descended into violence as police used baton charges to scatter the protesters. While law enforcement claimed that the protestors had resorted to stone-pelting, necessitating the use of baton charges to restore order, the protesters claimed that the police had used a heavy-handed lathi-charge despite their nonviolent demonstration. Meanwhile,┬аMangesh Sabale, the Sarpanch of Gevrai Payga in the Phulambri taluka, set his car ablaze, which he had only bought a year ago,┬аwishing to send a message to the state government against the┬аuse of lathi charges┬аon protestors.┬аMaratha Reservation Protest: MSRTC Bus Services Suspended in Four Maharashtra Districts, Top Opposition Leaders Rush to Jalna.┬а
