“Don’t Burn Haryana!” Pleads National Chess Champ Anuradha Beniwal
This Jat chess player has a few questions for those protesting for Jat reservations.
Haryana has been witness to violence as the members of the Jat community began protesting over the demand of reservation. Buses and house have been set on fire, public property damaged and killing 12 people so far. According to rough estimates the recent protests have led to a loss of over Rs 20,000 crore.
It won’t be wrong to say that the protesters in pursuit of reservation have lost their ability to reason and logic.
From politicians to Virender Sehwag to wrestler Vijender Singh, all have tried to drill some sense into them but all has been in wain.
Amid this, another voice has emerged of Anuradha Beniwal, a former National Chess player from Haryana, who has represented India abroad and also won several accolades. Watch this young gutsy Jat woman asks Jat protesters the necessary questions.
