The mahapanchayat also called for a judicial probe into the police firing during the May 29-June 4 agitation and reiterated their demand for government jobs to the kin of those killed.
"We are also demanding appropriate ex-gratia for families of the deceased and will put forward these views before the Chopra committee looking into our demand for ST status," he said.
Thousands of Gujjars from states like Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Delhi, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Rajasthan attended the mahapanchayat at the mela ground venue.
