In a politically significant move, Civil Aviation Minister and RLD chief Ajit Singh and Congress leader Digvijay Singh today met Home Minister P Chidambaram to seek inclusion of Jats in the Union Government’s list of backward classes.
“Jats are classified as a backward caste in many states like Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan and Maharashtra. So why can’t they be classified a backward class at the Centre,” the RLD chief told reporters before the meeting.
