Jat Mahasabha slam over Bainsla's OBC reservation Remark

Tribute to Shantanu kumar, former DGP Rajasthan

Shantanu Kumar truly represented the Bharatpur state known for brave and unhindered fighter rulers like Surajmal. Though he did not descend directly from the ruling family of this Jat kingdom, by virtue of his education and time-taught experiences, he was the best among all who hailed from Bharatpur. Only K Natwar Singh, a cousin, overshadowed him. He was a true nature lover and shared his knowledge of birds and animals with utmost joy with nature lovers and often compared the rich past with the present poverty.
Saina Nehwal regains No. 2 rank

State OBCs not entitled to quota benefits in Centre: CAT
They reported for duty after clearing the selection process, but were not allowed to join on the ground that they did not figure as OBC in the Central government list and were not entitled to quota benefits. The petitioners pleaded before the tribunal that the selection was to be made for Delhi region so the OBC candidates belonging to Delhi and coming under the OBC list of the state should be considered for appointment. The tribunal, however, refused to grant any relief to them and dismissed their petitions.

Harvir Singh Nehwal the real Hero of India
In December 1998, Harvir Singh took saina to meet Coach Nani Prasad at the Lal Bahadur Stadium in Hyderabad. Seeing potential in the girl, Prasad asked Singh to enroll Saina as a summer trainee. Harvir Singh and Saina, who was 8 yrs old at the time, would wake up at 6 every morning and head to the stadium which was 20 km away. After two hours of practice, Singh would drop Saina to school on his way to work. Saina would often fall asleep on these journeys which prompted her mother to accompany them for the next three months. Traveling nearly 50 km a day in order to accommodate the training schedule, Singh eventually decided to move closer to the stadium in 1999. This however didn’t end the traveling ordeal as Saina was asked to attend evening training sessions as well. With the extra training sessions, traveling expenditure rose phenomenally. Added to the cost of equipment including shuttles, rackets, shoes, gutting and expenses rose to over Rs. 12,000 per month. In order to keep up with the rising cost of her training, Saina’s father withdrew money from his savings and provident fund. The tight-rope walk continued until 2002, when sports brand Yonex offered to sponsor Saina’s kit. As her status and rankings improved, the sponsorships increased.
India's ace shuttler and CWG gold medallist Saina Nehwal once said in TV interview that her birth was a big disappointment to her grandmother as she wanted a boy. But Sh. Harvir singh nehwal show that boy and girl child are same and didn't make any difference. He is real hero for Community, india and icon for generation ahead.

Saina Nehwal wins Hong Kong Open title
Saina, who dropped to fourth in the world rankings, is likely to inch closer to the number one spot with this resounding victory. Saina played a tactical game after she lost the first game and clawed her way back with some fast-paced rallies and powerful smashes to outwit the Chinese world number 5. In the second game, Saina jumped to 11-5 from 5-5 but Shixian narrowed the gap to 11-10 before the gutsy Indian surged ahead to 19-11 by registering seven straight points. But Saina missed a couple of points on the baseline and nets to allow Shixian close the gap to 19-16. But with the Chinese hitting the shuttle out, Saina was back into the match.
Khap Panchayat wakes up to save girls

Dr Neelam Singh, founder of Vatsalya, a non-government organisation working for checking female foeticide, said foeticide was rampant in the affluent districts of western UP. Dr SP Ram, director general of the health and family welfare department said several measures had been taken to implement the Act. “Surprise checks are being conducted at the ultra-sound test centres.” While the sex ratio (number of females per 1,000 males) in the state is 898, in western UP districts, the ratio is much lower — Saharanpur (865), Muzaffarnagar (871), Meerut (872), Ghaziabad (860) and Gautam Buddha Nagar (841).

Origin of word Jat - Variuos theories behind it
The other prominent theory of the word's origins is that Jat came from the word Gaut tribal name of some Indo-Aryan tribes of Central Asia (such as those which later became Gauts/Goths and settled in Europe), which was written in 'Jattan Da Ithihas'. It has also been mentioned by Bhim Singh Dahiya.
According to the historian 'Ram Lal Hala' the word Jat is drived from word 'Yat'. There was a king named 'Yat' in Chandra Vanshi clan who was ancestor of Lord Krishna. The Jats are descendants of King Yat. 'Yat' later changed to 'Jat'.

Jats to hold rally on November 25 at Delhi
Earlier, Jat community members had threatened to seal the Delhi borders Oct 3, before the start of the Commonwealth Games. They later changed their decision. 'We had got a request from the Congress government not to interrupt the Games. They had promised us that immediately after the Games, they would take up our issue, but it did not happen,' said Malik. 'Some members of a political party had also attacked and threatened me. But we are not going to step back and would continue fighting till all our demands are met,' he said. Earlier Sep 13 and 14, Hisar district of Haryana saw a widespread violence by Jat community members on this issue. A mob went on the rampage, targeting government and private property. One youth was killed in police firing, and several people were injured in clashes. Following the violence, Hisar superintendent of police Subhash Yadav was booked and transferred from his post.

Haryana Govt to honour Commonwealth Games winners
The Chief Minister said some credit for the success went to the government’s sports policy. His government had recruited 11 sportspersons to the DSP rank in the past six years. Haryana had recently launched a project named “Play for India” under which young talent had been identified and selected for training for competitions at the national as well as the international level. Also, it was commitment and dedication on the part of sportsmen of the state that had resulted in their super performance at the Games. The state government had constructed as many as 117 sports stadia in rural areas in the past few years and would try to set up sports academies in the districts too. While those winning the gold medal would be given a cash reward of Rs 15 lakh, the silver and bronze medallists would get Rs 10 and Rs 5 lakh, respectively. The coaches would also be honoured with cash rewards of Rs 1 lakh to Rs 3 lakh on Haryana Day.

He also termed all allegations against Samiti leadership including against Malik as "baseless and false".

CWG Diary - "All winners from India and also from Jat families"

Krishna Poonia’s gold was the first for India at the Commonwealth Games since Milkha Singh won the 440 yards race in 1958. After Australian world champion Dani Samuels cried off due to health and security fears, the Indian trio of Poonia, Harwant Kaur and Seema Antil were tipped to win at least two of the three medals. The three women are fierce rivals on the national circuit. Antil and Poonia aren’t the best of friends, especially after the former returned a positive test just after the 2006 Games. Poonia had then taken potshots at Antil, but today, no bad blood showed.
As the packed house brought the roof down, Poonia shouted over the din to tell a reporter that that she was happy that all winners were from India. “And all from Jat families,” she added. And when Poonia couldn’t come up with a great answer when asked if she would have won the gold had Samuels been around, it was Antil who jumped to her defence. “Even if Dani Samuels had participated today, Krishna would have won,” she said.
Haryana having double Crorepatis than Bangalore

India is considered to be one of poorest country in world and specially the rural india. Spread across 650,000 villages, with an average population of 1,100, rural villagers were long imagined by city dwellers as primitive, impoverished and irrelevant, something to drive past on the way to something else. But Northern state Haryana is one of exception in this list. Haryana has the largest number of rural crorepatis in India. The Jat people are one of the most prosperous groups in India on a per-capita basis and Majority of population in haryana belongs to Jat community.
Northern state of Haryana, rural dwellers are now nearly twice as likely to be crorepatis as city dwellers in Bangalore, the high-technology hub, according to the National Council for Applied Economic Research, the leading collector of data on rural India.

Saina Nehwal wins Gold in CWG 2010

Women shuttlers led by singles title-favourite Saina Nehwal provided India with a golden double to pilot the country to a historic second-place finish in the Commonwealth Games that ended here today. Saina rallied brilliantly from a first-game loss to put it across Mew Choo Wong of Malaysia 19-21, 23-21, 21-13 in the Women's Singles Final after Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa had captured the Doubles crown. In the first game, Saina found it difficult to judge the shuttle and lost a few points at the forecourt and nets to see the game slip out of her hands. But the Indian came back strongly in the second. Saina started playing more cross shots and kept pushing the shuttle at the back in the long rallies to come back from a 0-2 deficit to lead 14-10.
Wong then narrowed the gap and wrested the lead at 21-10 before the Indian closed the game with two more points to roar back into the contest. In the decider, Saina employed a similar strategy and keeping her rival away from the nets, used her deceptive drops and tosses to lead 11-7. She consolidated on her lead as Wong's game crumbled. The Malaysian kept hitting the shuttle out of the court and hit the nets in the final point as Saina burst into tears and ran into her mentor Pullela Gopichand's arms.

Some youngster like Amit said that "Our ancestors thought that if people marry in same gotra then genetic properties remain in the same family, so it was avoided that time. but now in 21st century same gotra marriage must be allowed while one said " same gotras should be avoided while we do not have issue in marriage between inter-caste and inter-religions".

Congress Jat leader says gehlot is anti-Jat leader
Singh, on the other hand, welcomed the party action against him, saying he had nothing to fear as whatever he said was true. "I am yet to receive the notice, but won't take seven days reply to it. Within three days I can explain how I was right in accusing Gehlot." Earlier this week, Singh had termed the chief minister a casteist, an anti- Jat leader and someone who had promoted large-scale corruption in the government. The Jat leader, in fact, demanded the party high command should set up an independent inquiry committee against him to examine if the charges made by him were false. "The party high command should act on the basis of such an inquiry and punish me only if I am found wrong," the four-time Congress MLA and former Lok Sabha MP said.
Jat leaders protest against central Govt on Khap issue
However, on this aspect, the Khap Panchayat members asserted that the council has never been party to such acts of violence, in contrast to the honour killings attributed to the community elders' notions on Gotra (social clan and family lineage). "We have told many times before that the Khap Panchayat does not issue diktats. Khap Panchayat always works for the good of the society and never takes a wrong decision," said Ram Singh Solanki, a Khap Panchayat functionary. Earlier, the Supreme Court had sought a response from the central government and eight states including Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Jharkhand on the honour killing issue.
Major Surendra Poonia win 3 Medals at World medical games
The champion, who started out as a long-distance runner and still competes in some of the country's prestigious marathons, says he could not participate in the long distance events at Porec because he tore a calf muscle during training for his maiden international competition. “Basically, I am a long-distance runner but weeks before the event I tore my muscle,“ says Poonia, who has been part of 10th and 2nd Para, based in Kashmir and Siachen, and done duty for the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Congo for a year. After a six-month stint at Agra's 50 I-Para Brigade, he became a medical officer at the Rashtrapati Bhawan. While there, his dreams took wings. “The sports facilities at the Rashtrapati Bhawan gave me the opportunity to rekindle my desire to represent the country. It was a tough field in Porec where 47 countries and 2,743 athletes took part, some of them members of their national teams.“ His next target, “Win more medals at the World Games.“
Jat demands OBC reservation, threaten to block Delhi
Mr Malik said, “There is no indication from the government that it plans to do anything. Hence, we will chalk out our strategy and go ahead with our earlier declaration of disrupting the Commonwealth Games 2010 if the government does not respond.” He said members of the jat community, whether they be Hindus, Muslims or Sikhs, should be given reservation under the OBC category in Union government jobs and also in states where there is no such reservation — like Haryana, Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir. Mr Malik also said the strategy of disrupting the Commonwealth Games would be chalked out on July 28 when members of the community will stage a “warning demonstration” at Jantar Mantar. Given that Delhi was “surrounded” by jats, Mr Malik warned, his members would be in a position to cut off power, petroleum, gas, milk and vegetable supplies to the national capital if the need arose.
Govt may bring special law for Honour killings
Sources said at the Cabinet meet, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal questioned the logic of moving amendments to the IPC along with the Indian Evidence Act and the Special Marriages Act to deal with honour killings. Sibal’s argument, supported by other colleagues like Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal, was that any “honour” killing just amounted to murder and hence, the need should be on ensuring action over the murder charges rather than classify them as a separate category of murder. They were of the view that existing laws were adequate to deal with the problem.

Saina Nehwal - with jat attitute "Nothing is Impossible"
Ranked in the fringes of the top-10 back then, Saina was forever making strategies to counter the Chinese, working on her flick, her net-play, her smash, her court coverage, desperately seeking a way to outmaneuver the assembly line rather than play into its hands by getting involved in a direct slugfest. In the last few months, she has fanned her China obsession by gradually making inroads into women's badminton's impenetrable fortress, getting herself to a place where – after three titles in a row, including two Super Series victories, and with a world ranking of No 3 – a sustained assault on the final frontier is the next logical step.

BSP Government and party support Jat Community’s demand for OBC at national level
The Chief Minister said that though Jat Community was included in the OBC category in Uttar Pradesh, it had not as yet been included in OBC category at national level. She said her party and the Government believed that the Jat Community should be included in OBC category at the national level also. She said that the method adopted by the Jat Community for the agitation to press for their demand for inclusion in OBC category at national level was not proper, as the people of Sarva Samaj, including Jat Community were put to difficulties. She said that people used to install kiosks for drinking water during summer and stopping water supply in this gruelling heat was not good from a humanitarian angle. The Chief Minister has again appealed to the people of Jat Community not to take to unconstitutional method. She expressed the hope that agitators would not take law into their hands and would not do any act, which could harm the people and create a law and order problem.

Jat protesters called off agitation, Life normal in NCR
Jat protesters called off their agitation, hours after a team of Jat leaders, accompanied by several Ghaziabad officials, held talks with representatives of the Centre's social welfare department in Delhi. The protesters moved away from the Upper Ganga canal, allowing the supply of raw water to be restored to Delhi. the Jats, protesting against Centre's perceived indifferent attitude towards their demand to bring the community under OBC category, asked the government to announce a new policy for them by July 10. The Jat leaders said if their demands were not met, "the situation would not pleasant when Delhi hosts the Commonwealth Games".
"Water, electricity, petrol, diesel, CNG etc reach Delhi through our fields. If our demands are not met we will be forced to disrupt their supply. In our talks we made this clear to the government officials," said Colonel M S Dahiya, one of the Jat representatives who attended the meeting in Delhi. Sources in Ghaziabad district administration said the negotiations between protesters and top officials went for several hours on Monday morning before they were successful in persuading the agitators to restore the water supply. "Centre and UP government were trying to pass the buck. While Centre said the state must deal with the problem, UP government said Jats have issues with the Central government. Finally, Centre agreed to hold talks with us," said one of the key Jat negotiators. Though water supply from the canal started on Monday afternoon, senior DJB officials said the raw water would not reach Sonia Vihar and Bhagirathi water treatment plants before 6-7 hours.
CPI Slam congress over hooda's remark on Khap
The CPI's remarks came in the backdrop of Hooda supporting Khap Panchayats of Jat community which has come out against marriage within same-gotra. "It is surprising to understand why the Congress is silent on the views of Hooda who is the chief minister of their party? The silence amounts to support the outdated,pro-caste panchayat outfits in the country," it said. The CPI demanded that Hooda withdraw his comments.
Haryana CM Hooda says marriage within same gotra not appropriate
Hooda's statement assumes significance in the wake of the approaching panchayat elections, slated for June 6 and 12. No political party in the state can afford to offend the Jat community as it forms a major chunk of the vote bank. Last month, the main opposition party Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) also supported the khap panchayats' call to amend the Hindu Marriage Act.
Sarv Khap Mahapanchayat demands ban on same gotra marriage
Not stopping at that, the leaders announced to stop repayment of bank loans, water and electricity bills if their demands are not accepted. Prominent among those who attended the meeting was BKU president Mahendra Singh Tikait. "We have been forced to take these decisions against MLAs and MPs because their silence (on same-gotra marriage ban) clearly endorses the government's stand of not making any changes in the Hindu Marriage Act. Besides, since they believe that they are comfortable in the present system, let them marry off their children within their families. It is a social boycott," said Satbir Singh Chahal, the president of All India Jat Swabhiman Sabha. Justifying their stand, Dada Baljit, the president of Maliks khap, claimed, "We are here to protect our age-old tradition and culture. The defaulting MLAs and MPs shall have to deposit the fine with their village priests and obtain a receipt before going out to attend a social or political function.... One thing is for sure, we wont allow any social wrong under the garb of changing trends."
INLD wants assembly meet to ban same-gotra marriages
The communication from the INLD leaders said same 'gotra' marriages should be prohibited in the country to maintain social balance and harmony and to honour customs. The INLD support for the khaps seems to be targetted at garnering votes in the rural areas in the June 6 and 12 panchayat elections in the state. In the wake of the village council polls in Haryana, no political party can afford to annoy the dominant Jat community which forms a huge vote bank in the state. Khap panchayats have been in the news for the wrong reasons in the last five years after they started annulling the marriages of young couples, saying they were 'brothers and sisters' - being from the same 'gotra'. Khap decisions declaring several such marriages void have led to murders of young couples by their families or other community members - clear cases of honour killings. many couples and their families have also been socially boycotted and forced to leave their homes and lands.
Jat Vote bank, Khap and Haryana Politics
While praise for the Khaps by Jindal (40), who is also a leading industrialist and US-educated, may have surprised a few, but 75-year-old former Chief Minister and opposition INLD supremo, Om Prakash Chautala's recent statements that his party will bring a resolution to amend the Hindu Marriage Act, goes on to show that parties in Haryana cannot afford to annoy the Jats. The present Act does not address the problem of same gotra marriages, a key demand raised by various Khaps. "We will bring a resolution in the assembly regarding this. If the government brings an amendment bill, my party will support it," Chautala has said. Another senior Congress leader and six-time MLA from Rewari, Ajay Yadav, too has been supportive of the Khaps, admitting that there is a "scientific reason" why marriages within the same gotras should not take place. Chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, also a Jat, has tried to play down fatwas issued from time to time by the Khaps, maintaining that law will take its own course and nobody will be allowed to take law in his own hands. However, his close confidant and Rajya Sabha member Shadi Lal Batra has also gone a step ahead, favouring amendment in the Hindu Marriage Act.
Various Khaps including Dharana, Singhwal and Asanda, have in the past been issuing fatwas to couples and their families over same gotra marriages. Political analysts point out that with Municipal polls and Panchayat elections drawing closer in the state, parties cannot afford to alienate the Jats. The Jats are believed to have helped in INLD's resurgence in October 2009 elections. The party bounced back into reckoning after being out in the dumps having tasted successive electoral defeats from 2004.
Baba Ramdev supprt Khap panchayats' demand
Opposition to such marriages should be expressed in a non-violent manner, Ramdev said. "If Khap Panchayats press their demands in a non-violent way and constitutionally, then our legal experts should also think over their demands including on making necessary amendments to the Hindu Marriage Act," he said. The self-styled caste councils have drawn flak for their diktats against couples marrying in the same sub-caste.
Use Khap Panchayat for social reform
We must use khap panchayat or other social organization to bring major changes in society by bringing down social evils like child marriage, Mayara, Mrityu-Bhoj and other issues in jat community and make some major changes in Khap panchayat's traditional rules as per demand of time. We must use this platform for girl education, help financially if some one needed and bring awareness in public that today there is no difference between girl and boy.

On Congress MP Navin Jindal's support to khaps, Hooda said that khap panchayats "have their own views. Individuals have their own views and we have our own." The CM's statement came at a time when khap panchayats are in the news for allegedly ordering honour killings and getting political backing in pushing their demand for amendment in the Hindu Marriage Act to ban same gotra (sub-caste) marriages.

Naveen Jindal, Chautala support khap panchayat
Jindal, however, did receive some support from within. Congress MP Shadi Lal Batra said he would demand an amendment to the act in Parliament. Khaps in Haryana have not only been demanding a ban on same-gotra marriages but also on alliances within a village to “protect the social fabric”. Jindal was forced to cancel his foreign tour and attend a khap mahapanchayat at Kaithal in Haryana after the Sarv Jaat Sarv Khap Mahapanchayat threatened to lay siege to his residence there. Khap leaders — who have asked Haryana MPs to clarify their stand by May 25 — presented him with their demands. Jindal assured them he would apprise the party leadership and Centre about their issues. Though Jindal condemned khaps for supporting honour killings, he said the issues raised by them are complex and demand a larger debate. “Being a public representative, I am duty bound to listen to their issues and try to address them.”
