Convened by the Gurjar Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti, the meeting was aimed at pressing the community's long-standing demands related to reservation and other welfare issues. The state government's draft response to these demands was read out by Samiti president Vijay Bainsla during the the Mahapanchayat concluded without incident, discontent brewed amongst a section of attendees dissatisfied with the government's reply. Soon after, some community members gathered on the tracks and stopped the 54794 Mathura–Sawai Madhopur passenger train at Fateh Singhpura station, disrupting rail operations between Fateh Singhpura and Dungeria stations in the Kota division. According to the West Central Railway's Chief Public Relations Officer, the train was held up for over three hours. Approximately 10 to 12 trains were affected due to the blockade. Authorities, including Railway Protection Force (RPF), local police, and senior railway officials, engaged in negotiations with the Jain, Senior Divisional Commercial Manager, Kota (WCR), confirmed that the track was cleared by around 7 pm following successful discussions. "There has been no report of injury or loss of life, and the railway is fully committed to ensuring passenger safety," he to the protest, Vijay Bainsla - son of the late Kirori Singh Bainsla, who had spearheaded several Gurjar reservation movements since 2006 - downplayed the disruption. "Some people might have come on the tracks. I don't want to comment much on it," he told Bainsla expressed satisfaction with the government's handling of the core issues raised by the community. "To get the 5 per cent reservation for Most Backward Classes (MBC) included in the Ninth Schedule of the Constitution, a proposal will be recommended by the state cabinet to the Centre. The entire community wanted this. It is a legislative issue, and we are all happy," he Ninth Schedule of the Constitution includes laws that are protected from judicial review, shielding them from legal also noted that another key demand - appointing a nodal officer in each district to review and resolve police cases filed against community members during past Gurjar agitations - had received a positive response from the state. "The government has agreed to it," he in the day, the Samiti had issued an ultimatum to the BJP-led Rajasthan government to respond to their demands by Sunday afternoon. In anticipation of unrest, Minister of State for Home Jawahar Singh Bedham had urged Gurjar leaders to avoid a democracy, everyone has the right to express their views. But when the government is open to dialogue, what is the need for a Mahapanchayat or protest?" Bedham asked. He also made a personal appeal to Vijay Bainsla, highlighting his longstanding association with the BJP and participation in party Mahapanchayat led to heavy traffic diversions in the region. Movement between Bayana (Bharatpur) and Hindaun City (Karauli) was rerouted via Karauli and Mahwa through Kalsada, bypassing the Pilupura area. Vehicles from Karauli to Bharatpur were diverted via Hindaun–Kalsada–Bhusawar instead of the Bayana–Hindaun state highway. Additional police forces were deployed in the area to maintain law and day's events were reminiscent of earlier Gurjar agitations, particularly those led by Kirori Singh Bainsla, which had in the past brought major railway routes to a standstill. While Sunday's protest was smaller in scale, it underscored the community's continued demand for affirmative action and legislative the tracks now cleared and talks seemingly moving forward, the state government is expected to formally process its commitments, including sending the reservation proposal to the Centre and addressing pending legal cases tied to earlier protests. advertisement

Commitment made to empower every citizen: Majhi
1 2 Bhubaneswar: CM Mohan Charan Majhi on Sunday highlighted key achievements of his govt and reiterated his commitment to a 'prosperous Odisha' through transparent and accountable governance, during a meeting with BJP MPs and MLAs here on Sunday. Marking the anniversary of BJP's historic election win on June 4, 2024, and the formation of its first govt in Odisha on June 12, Majhi emphasised the past year was a period of laying strong foundations for inclusive growth and reforms. "From the farmer in the field to the student in the classroom, we made a commitment to empower every citizen. We knew expectations were high and that comparisons with the previous govt were inevitable. That is why, within 24 minutes of our first cabinet meeting, we took four historic decisions," Majhi said. He said the govt's vision for a 'prosperous Odisha' was built on four key pillars — livelihood and employment, infrastructure development, social security and welfare, and cultural pride through 'Odia Asmita'. He emphasised these priorities were shaped around four core communities — poor, farmers, youth and women — in line with the central govt's focus areas. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 오스템 임플란트 받아가세요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo "We have begun a new era of governance — one that is people-first, reform-oriented, and grounded in our Odia identity," the CM said.
