Haryana's Jat reservation bill delayed

CHANDIGARH: The bill promised by Haryana government to the Jat community, for providing reservation for them in government jobs and educational institutions, has been delayed as the authorities failed to reach a consensus on the modalities of the bill. Minister Anil Vij said that the bill would be brought very soon while cautioning the members of the community to stop threatening the state machinery over the issue. The delay in the bill may provoke a backlash from the Jats who have threatened to go on a hunger strike if their demands weren't met.
