“We need to change the act as we are seeing a lot of cases where it is being misused,” said Thackeray. “Why do we need laws framed on basis of caste? He questioned. He also wanted the current reservation system to be changed.
“Reservation should be on basis of economic factors and not on caste basis,” he added. In the ill-fated fated incident at Karjat, the victim belonged to the dominant Maratha community while the accused were allegedly of the Dalit caste. The villagers prevented Dalit leaders like Ramdas Athawale and Prakash Ambedkar from visiting the village to meet the victims, though both condemned the incident in strongest terms.
