Jat Yuva Ekta Manch today staged a protest in Jind for the release of youths from the community who were arrested in connection with the recent quota agitation.
Police took 79 workers of the Jat body into preventive custody, but later released all of them.
The Akhil Bharatiya Jat Sangarsh Samiti also extended support to the Manch.
The Samiti's district President Bhoop Singh said the government should accept their demands as they were genuine.
The district administration had made elaborate security arrangements to prevent any untoward incident during today's 'jail-bharo' protest, which was held peacefully, police said.
The Manch has said it will continue the protests until all Jat youths arrested in connection with the quota stir have been released.
