Jat rights movement

The Jat rights movement is a social and political movement in India, primarily led by the Jat community, which seeks to secure greater rights, affirmative action, and government benefits for its members. The Jats, traditionally farmers in northern India, have demanded inclusion in the Other Backward Classes (OBC) category to gain access to educational and job opportunities. This movement has often involved protests, demonstrations, and negotiations with the government. The underlying issues include economic disparities, social recognition, and political representation, reflecting broader themes of caste dynamics and social justice in Indian society.
