Virender Sehwag appeals to Jat agitators to end protests

Delhi: Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has appealed to the jats to end their violent agitation for reservation, saying that people of the community are saviours and not destroyers.

“I appeal to all my brothers to give up violence and present their demands in a constitutional manner. We are saviours, not destroyers,” Sehwag, who is himself a jat, tweeted.

“We have made the country proud whether in the army or in sports, our zeal should be used to do good for the country,” he added.

Jats are demanding reservation and the Haryana Chief Minister M.L. Khattar appealed them to maintain peace.
