Aurangzeb, May 19: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on Thursday, said that the tomb of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb will remain closed for five days to ensure that the law and order situation in the state does not get affected.
This came after a major controversy broke out following AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi's brother Akbaruddin Owaisi recently visiting Aurangzeb's tomb in Maharashtra's Aurangabad district.
Pawar said, "We have discussed the issue of OBC reservation with the Advocate General, Law and Judiciary Ministry and others. Today I will meet the Chief Minister also. This was unanimously decided by all parties that we should do elections with OBC reservations."
