New Delhi, Feb 22 (IBNS) The Indian army had to fly in the mortal remains of martyred Captain Pawan Kumar to his home town in Jind for the funeral as several roads in Haryana remained blocked on Monday and reports of fresh violence reported from Sonepat, according to media reports.
Captain Pawan Kumar, 23 years, died while fighting militants in the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir.
 
Ganaur in Sonepat saw fresh violence on Monday according to media reports. 
 
The crucial Delhi-Ambala road remains blocked, say latest reports.
 
Colleges remain shut in nine districts in Haryana.
 
The Jat quota stir in Haryana in the past nine days have led to 12 deaths and left 150 injured.
 
Haryana government assured the Jat leaders that they will be provided with special backward classes reservation after they met with Union home Minister Rajnath Singh.  
 
Venkaiah Naidu has been appointed to oversee the proceedings, according to reports.
 
Earlier the Supreme Court had rejected an appeal by the Jats to grant them OBC status as the apex court said that the community does not come under the demanded criteria in Haryana.
 
The Jats had received a special OBC status by the preceding CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda in 2013, but that was stayed later by the Punjab and Haryana High Court in 2015.
 
Supreme Court of India has asked the Jat agitators to maintain peace and not damage properties, according to media reports.
