According to Supreme Court of India Jat community of various States is

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

In Ram Singh v. Union of India (2015) the Supreme Court quashed the notification including the Jats of several States in the Central list of Other Backward Classes, holding that the inclusion was not supported by contemporary data showing social backwardness. The Jat community was thus held "not backward class under Article 16(4)" for that purpose; the Court did not hold it to be mainly socially backward or rule on its political organisation.
