Jaipur: The Gurjar community in Rajasthan blocked the Delhi-Mumbai railway track for almost two hours after the Mahapanchayat of the community called by the Gurjar Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti at Pilupura in Bharatpur on Sunday.

Although the Mahapanchayat ended with accepting the proposed draft sent by the state government on the demands of the community, but soon after this, the situation changed, and a mob led by some youth reached the nearby Delhi-Mumbai railway track, stopped a passenger train and removed the fishplates of the track. The youth leading the mob were not ready to accept the proposed draft, however, after a meeting with the officials, the protesters cleared the track around 6.30 pm.

The Mahapanchayat was called by Vijay Bainsla, son of late Kirori Singh Bainsla who led the Gurjar reservation movement for years.

This time the agitation was called to demand the inclusion of five percent reservation to the Most Backward Classes,(MBC) in the 9th Schedule of the Constitution and to clear some other issues pending with the government.

The proposed draft sent by the government on the demands was accepted and Vijay Bainsla announced that the draft sent by the state government is positive, and an agreement has been reached on 7 demands. He said that the government will prepare a proposal and send it to the center, so that 5% MBC reservation can be included in the 9th Schedule of the Constitution. After this announcement, the Mahapanchayat was declared to be ended.

But some youths, refused to accept the draft and reached the Delhi-Mumbai railway line. These youths removed the fishplate of the railway track, stopped the train going from Bhiwadi to Sawai Madhopur and also pelted stones at the train engine. The track remained blocked for almost two hours.
