Jat movement

The Jat movement refers to the social and political activism of the Jat community, primarily in North India, particularly in states like Haryana, Punjab, and Rajasthan. Historically agrarian, the Jats have sought greater recognition, rights, and representation in politics and education. The movement gained momentum in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, with protests demanding reservation quotas in government jobs and educational institutions. This has highlighted broader themes of caste dynamics, social justice, and economic aspirations within Indian society, as various communities seek equitable treatment and opportunities in a rapidly changing nation.
