Why Jats in Haryana, India are fighting for reservation?

Let’s take a simple example to understand this. 4 people are giving SSC-cgl exam to get a government job.

A- General candidate (Brahmins,
jaats, rajputs or any other)

B- OBC candidate (Sainis, Yadavs etc)

C- SC Candidate (Chamars, Valmikis etc.)

D- ST candidate (Meenas etc.)

Suppose the paper-1 contains 200 marks. Now the cut-off for tier-1 selection is as follows for all the 4 people:

D- Needs 74.25 marks to get selected.

C- 80.25

B- 89.50

A - 102.25

WTF....difference of marks in between A & D. This is discrimination against all General category candidates. A person from ST category, even if he is billionaire, his children apply under ST Quota and got benefit of that and on the other side, a General category student didn’t get selected because of just one mark, doesn’t matter how hard they tried.

If you are preparing for any competitive exam, you know very well how hard it is to get 10-20 marks more than the student of your IQ level.

You can also have two perspectives on this matter,

1] Struggle of Jats for OBC reservation

2] Struggle to end this evil of reservation, around 70 years have passed without much success after its introduction.

First one is obvious and seems straightforward, any person will at first sight sees , it only as another struggle by another caste for quotas.

But indirectly, it can also be seen as an indication to this unfair system of quotas based on the evil of caste which on the one hand government wants to discontinue while on the other hand reinforcing it by taking it as basis for other things.

Earlier it was Gurjars in Rajasthan,

Then it was Patels in Gujrat,

And now there are Jats in Haryana on the same path.

This system of quota has been well tried and given enough time but nothing fruitful has come out, except that, a fewer castes have taken most of the advantage while the most backward still remains there. ( ST includes, Bhil , Garasiya and many other nomads, no one knows them, only Meena, are there everywhere)

Apart from the goods it has done the negatives are much more, best of the minds and skilled are not getting their share , they are entitled to.

Let us hope some more such protests from other castes rises, and it proves to be among the last of the nails in the coffin of reservation.
