"I am a son born in a common Maratha farmer's family. I am aware of the pains and sufferings of the society," Shinde said in his social media post in Marathi.

"The incident of lathi-charge during the agitation in Jalna district is very unfortunate. I had a conversation with the leader of this movement, Jarange Patil. Meetings were also held under my chairmanship regarding their demands. Action was being taken by the government on their demands", Shinde further added.
