Ch Manmohan Singh said that it’s the result of first ever Mahila Adhiveshan of Jat community that just only after passing ten days, the government has forced to announce the OBC status to Jat community. He said Mahila Shakti has played a vital role in achieving this status.
The Jat leader said our victory has not accomplished with getting of OBC but our struggle will get accomplished when our community members get promises payment of Rs 25 lakh as promised by the PM Modi and complete ownership rights of custodian lands in their possession that have come under the ongoing state and central Govt projects in Jammu region.
Ch Manmohan Singh asked the community members to get united till all their demands are met. He also sought support of the entire Jat community to realize the dream of making the community well-off and educated. He said that Jats should ensure that their children become highly qualified.
