JAMMU, Nov 7: Youth of Saini community today staged a protest demonstration in Jammu, demanding revocation of OBC status to the community.
A large number of youth of Saini Community along with their elders assembled this afternoon at Exhibition Ground, Jammu to register their protest against granting of OBC status to the Community.
The protesting youth of the Commuity said that the Government recently granted OBC status to them but they are not interested in getting OBC status. “We never asked the Government for OBC status, as our community members are able to compete with others on the basis of their talent,” the protesting Saini youth maintained.
“Saini community youth are in no way less talented than other youth of the country. The community youth are highly competitive and have already made our community proud by performing excellently in tough competitions in every sector, be it Government job, civil services, sports, education, medical, engineering, etc,” they said, adding Government should give OBC status to some other community which is weak and backward.
The protesting youth said such type of reservation may lower down their morale which they cannot accept at any cost. Emphasizing that reservation should only be accorded to economically weaker sections of the society, Saini community youth said that they categorically oppose the inclusion of the Community in the OBC/OSC list and demand the immediate withdrawal of their Community from the OBC list.
