If needed, we will meet Jarange-Patil again, on Saturday morning,” said BJP MLC Prasad Lad, who had accompanied water resources minister Radhakrishna Vikhe-Patil to a meeting with the quota activist earlier on Friday. Will consider demands: state gives written assurance to Jarange-Patil The delegation sent the written assurance to the activist late on Fri night through revenue officials in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.

The government delegation, led by Vikhe-Patil, who heads the cabinet sub-committee on …

File. | Photo Credit: G. Moorthy For the last 87 days, MGNREGS workers have been protesting at the Muzaffarpur district headquarters in Bihar. The Union government had assured them that until the Viksit Bharat—Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB–G RAM G) Act, 2025, passed by Parliament in December, is rolled out, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) would continue unchanged. But on the ground, workers say the story is very different. The protest in Muzaffarpur began on January 2 this year. Nearly 12,000 workers in the district have not received work for the past three to four months — even before the new rural employment law was introduced. There is no clarity on when the new scheme under the VB–G RAM G Act will be implemented on the ground, as the Centre is still holding …
