Jat Socio-political Movements

Jat socio-political movements are initiatives primarily led by the Jat community in India, particularly in regions like Haryana and Punjab, seeking social and political empowerment. These movements often focus on issues such as reservation in government jobs and educational institutions, land rights, and political representation. Jats, traditionally agrarian, aim to address perceived economic and social inequalities. Over the years, these movements have sometimes led to protests and clashes with authorities, reflecting broader concerns over identity, resource access, and community rights within the societal framework of India.
