The Jat reservation agitation was a series of violent protests in February 2016 by the Jat people of North India, especially those in the state of Haryana, which "paralysed" the state for 10 days. The protestors sought inclusion of their caste in the Other Backward Class (OBC) category, which would make them eligible for affirmative action benefits. Besides Haryana, the protests also spread to the neighbouring states, such as Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and the National Capital Region.

  • The Jat reservation agitation was a series of violent protests in February 2016 by the Jat people of North India, especially those in the state of Haryana, which "paralysed" the state for 10 days. The protestors sought inclusion of their caste in the Other Backward Class (OBC) category, which would make them eligible for affirmative action benefits. Besides Haryana, the protests also spread to the neighbouring states, such as Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and the National Capital Region. Police and onlookers described the initial phase of the protests as peaceful but it later transformed into violent riots lead by Jat community, especially in the city of Rohtak. Starting on 12 February, the Jats organized non-violent protests for reservation by blocking railway lines and roads, while non-Jats opposed to their demands, organized counter-protests. On 18 February, a group of non-Jats protesters clashed violently with a group of lawyers protesting against 2016 JNU sedition controversy, mistaking the lawyers for Jats. Later, they also came into conflict with the Jat students. On the same day, the police allegedly beat up some Jat students in Rohtak, while trying to open a blockade. Police also raided a Boy's hostel, and reportedly assaulted the Jat students, an occurrence which was captured on camera and circulated over social media. Following these incidents, several incidents of inter-caste violence took place across Haryana. By 25 February, the riots were estimated to have caused a loss of ₹340 billion (US$4.3 billion) in northern India. The Railway Minister told in the Lok Sabha that the total loss suffered by Railways on account of damage to property and cancellation of ticketswas about Rs 55.92 crore. By 26 February, 30 people had been killed in the violence. The government of Haryana had approved the Haryana Backward Classes (Reservation in Services and Admission in Educational Institutions) Bill on 29 March 2016, and notified the Act on 13 May 2016. The enacted Bill enlisted the Jats of Hindu, Sikh and Muslim jats, Bishnois, Tyagis, and Rors in the recently sculpted Backward Classes (C) category, making them eligible for 10% reservation in class 3 and 4, and 6% reservation in class 1 and 2 jobs. On 26 May 2016, the Punjab and Haryana High Court ruled against the Bill and now jats come in general category. (en)
  • 賈特人保留名額騷動,是2016年2月份印度北部的賈特人,特別是在哈里亞納邦的一系列抗議活動。抗議者試圖將他們的種姓列入其他落後階層類別,這將使他們有資格獲得行動上的利益。除了哈里亞納邦,抗議活動也蔓延到鄰邦如北方邦和拉賈斯坦邦,以及國家首都新德里。 警方和觀察者將初始階段的抗議活動描述為“和平”。從二月十二日起,賈特人組織非暴力抗議活動,阻塞鐵路線路和道路,非賈特人反對他們的要求並組織反抗。二月十八日,一批非賈特人抗議者與一批賈特抗議者激烈的衝突,二月十八日,一批非賈特人抗議者和律師抗議者衝突,後來,他們也與賈特學生發生衝突。在同一天,警方據稱在罗赫塔克打了一些賈特學生,試圖打開封鎖。警方還突擊搜查了一名男孩的宿舍,據報襲擊了賈特學生,這起事件被“拍照並在社交媒體上流傳”。在這些事件發生後,哈里亞納邦發生了幾起種族間暴力事件。 到了二月二十二日,這次抗議活動估計為印度造成了5.3億美元損失,鐵路部長在人民院說:鐵路公司因抗議而取消車票所蒙受的損失約為5592萬盧比。截至二月二十六日,有三十人因暴力而遇害。 哈里亞納邦政府於2016年3月29日批准了哈里亞納邦落後階級條例草案,並於2016年5月13日通過該法案。但在2016年5月26日,旁遮普省和哈里亞拉邦高等法院否決了該條例草案。 (zh)
