The Jogi, Yogi and Nath community was declared as one of the backward classes by the Mandal Commission and they have population of 40,000 to 50,000 in the state. The people of Boria/Bouria/Bowaria community are working as manual labourer in the vegetable/fruits mandies of the state and put up in extremely poor and unhygienic conditions. Both these communities were struggling for their inclusion in the Backward Classes since 1996, but due to insensitive attitude and slackness on the part of the authorities, their grievances were not addressed.
Prof. Virender Gupta and Adv. Onkar Seth assured those called on them that the Commission and they in person shall put their efforts to persuade the Government for issuing the order about the inclusion of their communities in the Other backward Communities. |
