**New Delhi, January 13, 2025** – Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal has accused the BJP of breaking a promise to Delhi’s Jat community regarding central OBC reservation. Ahead of the February 5th Delhi Assembly elections, Kejriwal met with Jat leaders who expressed anger over years of unfulfilled pledges.

Kejriwal highlighted the disparity where Jats in Rajasthan receive benefits from central government institutions like Delhi University and AIIMS, while Delhi’s Jats, despite being included in the city’s OBC list, are excluded from the central list. He directly questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah about when this injustice would be rectified.

The AAP leader emphasized the significant voting bloc Jats represent in several Delhi constituencies, particularly in outer areas. He stated that the AAP fully supports the community’s demand for central OBC reservation. The Jat delegation’s accusations of BJP betrayal over the past decade underscore the political implications of this issue as the Delhi elections approach.
