Amid the ongoing protest in Mumbai over the Maratha quota, the Manoj Jarange-led quota agitation escalated into its third day. With no early resolution in sight to the agitation, hundreds of Maratha community members have been exploring prominent locations in Mumbai, reported PTI. Jarange's supporters were seen in places such as Marine Drive, the Gateway of India, and Girgaon Sea Beach.

Meanwhile, Jarange, who has been on a hunger strike since Friday, has vowed that he will not even consume water from Monday as the government has not accepted his demand to include Marathas under the OBC quota. 

The agitation is ongoing at Azad Maidan.
