Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Friday urged Jat agitators to exercise restraint and cremate the body of the youth, who was killed in alleged police firing this week in Hisar district.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the assembly session which concluded here, he said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Randeep Singh Surjewala has already apprised the House with the entire situation concerning the ongoing agitation.
He said that the Committee of Khap Panchayats had agreed to wait for the report of Backward Classes Commission set up by the state government.
Hooda said there was no justification to launch an agitation before the submission of the report by the Commission.
On the ruckus witnessed in the House on Friday over the Jat agitation, he said the role of the Opposition was not constructive.
"Their approach was not positive." Surjewala said that only INLD leaders and workers were on sitting on the railway tracks. He said if INLD leaders stop adding fuel to the fire and giving air to the agitation and withdraw their office bearers from the agitation, that would be of help.
In reply to another question, Surjewala said that about half-a-dozen agitators who were associated with INLD had been arrested.
