Meetings planned to address Gurjars' seven demands

Jaipur: Following assurances from the state govt to the Gurjar Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti on June 8, three different levels of meetings are scheduled in the coming weeks to address the Gujjar community's seven demands. The first meeting, scheduled for June 26, will focus on reviewing backlogs and evaluating the progress of Devnarayan Yojana. State govt officials will meet with representatives nominated by the Sangharsh Samiti for the purpose. A second meeting with the ministerial sub-committee is planned for late June to discuss crucial issues including the roster system, pending recruitments under the MBC quota and resolution of pending cases. The third and most significant meeting will involve cabinet approval for including the 5% MBC reservation in the Constitution's Ninth Schedule, followed by an appeal to the Central govt for implementation. "A separate meeting to address the pending cases is likely to be decided during the meeting of the ministerial sub-committee," said a source. Vijay Bainsla, convenor of the sangharsh samiti, expressed optimism following a recent review of the Devnarayan scheme by minister for social justice and empowerment Avinash Gehlot. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Berlin: Rentner zahlen zu viel für Hörgeräte – Das ist der Grund Gutes Hören Undo "The assurance of distributing pending old scooties is a very positive sign," Bainsla said.
