Jat quota protests: Community leaders to meet Rajnath Singh again

New Delhi: With the agitation by the Jats in Haryana showing no signs of subsiding, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh is set to meet the leaders from the community yet again on Sunday.

The Jat and Khap leaders from Haryana will meet Rajnath at his residence at 3 p.m.

After the meeting yesterday, the delegation had said that they were waiting for the formation of a committee which would review the reservation demands of their community.

 

"We had four demands; compensation for those who have died, return of complain, the reservation should be implemented and we demand action on the officers who have ordered firing," a Jat leader told the media after the meeting.

"They have told us that they would be forming a committee by tomorrow which would review the reservation demand," he added.

When asked about their course of action, the Jat leaders said they await the formation of the committee as assured by the government.

The Jats leaders appealed to the people of Haryana to maintain peace in the region, saying violence would not lead to any solution.

Meanwhile, former Haryana chief minister B.S. Hooda is on a hunger strike at the Jantar Mantar in Delhi, as an appeal to the protesting Jat community to maintain law and order and call off the agitation.
