Jind, May 3
Akhil Bharatiya Jat Aarakshan Sangarsh Samiti (ABJASS) president Yashpal Malik today showered praise on Chief Minister Mahohar Lal Khattar, but criticised his Cabinet colleagues.
Malik was here today to make an appeal to the Jat community to take part in a dharna at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on May 10.
Malik said: “Khattar is not a politically-minded person rather he is a man with social instinct. He is helpless as some of his Cabinet colleagues are not in his control and they played a vital role against the Jats.”
Malik said not only the non-Jat communities, some but Jat political leaders were also responsible for atrocities on innocents during the agitation.
Malik said the Chief Minister should take strict action against such leaders who had tried to disturb the social harmony in the state. The mayhem was a political conspiracy hatched against the Jat community, he said, adding that there were evidence against BJP workers who created nuisance during the agitation.
He said the state government should increase the percentage of reservation from 6 to 12 per cent for Class-I and II government jobs.
He said the Union government should also give reservation to the Jat community without any delay.
Malik said: “If the Union government fails to accept our demands, we will start another agitation.”
