Jat Militancy

Jat militancy refers to the social and political assertiveness of the Jat community, primarily in India, particularly in states like Haryana and Punjab. This group has sought greater political recognition, social rights, and economic benefits, often leading to protests and sometimes violent confrontations with authorities. Key issues include demands for reservations in educational institutions and government jobs, reflecting deeper socio-economic inequalities. These movements are rooted in historical grievances and the desire for empowerment, often complicating peace and stability in the regions where the Jats reside.
