Scores of people from the Jat community today held a protest outside Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit's residence here demanding reservation in government jobs and educational institutions.
Another group held a demonstration at Jantar Mantar too.
One of the protesters said the community had decided to launch an agitation ahead of the Commonwealth Games but it was suspended following an assurance by Dikshit that she will take up their demands with top leaders in the Union Government.
"We want reservation in government jobs. We have been asking the Union Government to make required changes in law," a protester, outside Dikshit's official residence at 3, Matilal Nehru road in Central Delhi, said.
