On Friday, the doctors in Jalna stated that there are swellings in the kidneys and liver of activist Manoj Jarange Patil, who ended his indefinite fast over Maratha reservation after nine days on Thursday. they further added that it will take time to recover.


Manoj Jarange Patil, is currently receiving medical care at a private hospital in the Ulkanagari area of Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.


"There are swellings in the kidneys and liver of Manoj Jarange apart from dehydration. His urea and creatinine levels are on the higher side and it will take time to recover," said a senior doctor.


The activist, who had been agitating at Antarwali Sarati village in Jalna district since October 25 demanding reservation for Marathas in government jobs and education. On Thursday, Patil ended his fast after four Maharashtra ministers met him and urged him to call off the indefinite hunger strike.

While speaking to media, Patil refused to comment on Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut that he gave the deadline of December 24 to the government because he knew that the current government led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde won't be there by December 30.

"This is a political statement and I have no right to talk about it," he said, adding that various committees working on the issue will still be there.

"I have ended my fast, but the Maratha quota agitation continues. Relay fasts will also continue," Jarange said on Thursday as he asked the Maharashtra government to resolve the issue by December 24.

Manoj Jarange Patil, whose agitation had kept Maharashtra on the edge, has vowed to lead a "massive" march to Mumbai if no decision was taken on the emotive issue within two months.
