Ahmedabad, Aug 28: Hardik Patel who is leading Patidar also known as Patel community’s protest against the Gujarat government even threatened to uproot Bharatiya Janata Party from the state. Patel community who staged a violent protest in Gujarat following curfew in several parts of the state is demanding reservation under OBC quota.
Justifying the demand for Patels who are economically and politically strong, Hardik Patel said, “Despite getting good number Patels fail to get admission for high education and jobs because of quota system.” Do you know how educated Hardik Patel is?
You will be shocked after knowing that Hardik Patel needed grace number to complete his graduation. Hardik Patel could pass the Bachelor of Commerce degree with 49.6 percent after getting 8 marks as grace numbers. According to a report of Navbharat Times, in commercial communication subject, one needs minimum 25 marks to pass while Hardik got just 17 marks. The college rewarded 8 grace marks to Hardik so that he could be passed in the subject.
However, one should not judge a person’s ability through his degrees but in Hardik’s case media and people won’t ignore this shocking fact about his qualifications.
Patel said that he will soon meet the leaders of the community’s movement for the demand of reservation. Hardik Patel has emerged as the icon of the movement that took Gujarat by storm in the last few weeks and disrupted normal life, as thousands of people from the community, followed Patel onto the roads to demand reservation from the government.
The Jat community has also decided to follow in the footsteps of the Patidars of Gujarat and will reportedly stage a protest in front of Jantar Mantar in Delhi, on September 28. The Jat Aarakshan Sangharsh Samiti (JASS) has launched a nationwide drive to ‘recruit’ Jat youths for the Jat Yuva Sena(Young Jat Army) to fight the reservation battle. The community has also launched a Facebook Page, a Whatsapp Group, to attract Jat youths to join the Jat Yuva Sena.

Patels in Gujarat,though economically sound and socially strong lacks in better education.Most of the Patels are poor in English and most subject they are backward.Gujarat Governments even during Congress ruled time has not helped Patel Community to gain their space in Administration and education.Parties like BJP could communalise Gujarat because of their educational backwardness and their anger was got diverted to innocent minorities.There are strong Patels starting from Vallabhai Patel,H,M,Patel who has not done much good for the community as a whole but they did service to their near ones only.There are many suffering families of Patel in rural areas and in reality they are very good at heart.The communal venom was injected in them and their educational backwardness and grievances are used to exploit them for power.Why can’t in India ,in modern times bury the hatchet of historical burdens and give opportunities to all citizens and why can’t we create chances without discrimination.Hardik Patel’s mark should not be taken as a matter of mocking but this is a fact and the system is responsible for that.Patels agitation is good and this helps to realize the improper Government systems and people should understand the problems of the country and how our leaders mislead the Nation using Mahatma Ghandhi,Dr.Balasaheb Ambedkar etc and how our democracy is neglecting socio-economic issues.
