TIL Desk/National/Haryana-Accusing BJP of “cheating” them on the issue of reservation, leaders of Jat organisations and Khap panchayats today said members of the community would vote against the party in next years assembly elections in Punjab and Uttar Pradesh.
“We have decided to shun the violent mode of protest and work for defeat of BJP in assembly elections in Punjab and Uttar Pradesh as the party has cheated the Jats on reservation issue in Haryana,” Choudhari Omvir Singh, founder of Vishwa Jat Manch, told reporters here.
“Jats from Haryana will tour UP and Punjab and tell the voters there that BJP has cheated the community,” he said. The gathering of Jat leaders passed five resolutions, including one which demanded the Haryana government order a judicial inquiry into the violence during the February agitation by the community.
