Rail and road traffic has been disrupted following continued protests by members of the Gujjar community in Rajasthan's Bharatpur. Consequently, more than 12 trains have been diverted on the Delhi-Mumbai Railway line and the state has for the time being discontinued its bus service on the Agra-Jaipur route as a precaution.

It is reported that some members of the Gujjar community have occupied railway tracks in Bharatpur, about 180 kilometers from state capital Jaipur; they are protesting to seek reservations in employment and education, according to an official say.

Gujjar leader Vijay Bainsla said on Sunday - "We will continue our demonstration till our demands are met and an order regarding it is issued by the government. We will not entertain anything less than that. Youth is unemployed, over 25,000 jobs are stuck and nobody is talking about it,"

The Western Railways said in a statement this morning in a tweet, with a list of the affected routes - "Due to the Gujjar agitation, the train movement between Hindaun city in U.P and Bayana section in Rajasthan has been stopped."
