Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot today assured Jain community to consider their demand of including the community in Other Backward Class category.
In response to the demand of the community at a function here, Gehlot said the state Cabinet would look into the demand and that he will be happy to take a decision as per the sentiments of the community.
Gehlot said in his previous regime (1998-2003), efforts had been made in this direction but the demand remained unaddressed because of change in the government.
