NEET outrage: Thousands of students to write exam outside Tamilnadu

[Shamsher1990]

Your post confirms that you are not a Tamil and have never lived in Tamilnadu. For that matter whatever I have described not only happens in Tamilnadu but other states of India too. It is the Standard Operating Procedure.

And what proof of this 'Standard Operating Procedure' do you have?
BTW, I never claimed that I live in Tamil Nadu or India for that matter.

Proof? Do you think people would post online that they are fooling the system? It is a very well know fact and anyone who lives or lived in India would know this.

Do you know why Christians and Muslims are demanding caste based reservations in India? It is to avoid claiming being part of different religions based on the demands of the situation.

Do you know President of India was asked by AMU to apologize?

So its your opinion which you are peddling as truth. Good to know. BTW, your original point was that TN should become an Islamo-Christian republic of sorts.

Funny thing is even if some takes the bull crap that Tamils pretend to be Christians to get benefits and Hindu to get reservation at face-value, then how do you know they even take 'Christianity' or 'Islam' seriously? From that narrative, it seems they don't give a damn about religion at all but just benefits. So sorry Quran thumper, no one takes you or your professed religion seriously in TN.

Heck even the folks like OP and kvpak told you to buzz off.

Oh don't bother about reservation. In India, reservation is derived based on your familial background and not your religion. Meaning a person can be a Muslim/Christian/Hindu/Buddhist and yet get affirmative action benefits based on the caste of the family he was born in.

What opinion? I have first hand experience in this. Don't need certificate from someone like you who has never lived in India.

Tamils are devote Christians. They have to act as Hindus just to get reservations.

Are you sure you have lived in India?

Because a SC/ST Hindu who converted to Christianity/Buddhism/Islam can still claim their benefits. Indian caste based reservation is not based on religion. Heck even their sons and daughters can keep on claiming reservation.

There is no need to 'act as Hindu' if only reservation is the benefit.

Ridiculous. Caste is a Hindu concept. How can a Muslim or a Christian claim caste based reservation being a non-Hindu?


SC ready to test reservation demand for dalit Christians and Muslims

TNN | Jan 22, 2011, 05:17 IST


NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday framed questions to test the validity of the demand based on the Ranganath Misra Commission recommendation for inclusion of dalit Christians and Muslims in the scheduled caste list to avail quota in education and jobs.
A Bench comprising Chief Justice S H Kapadia and Justices K S Radhakrishnan and Swatanter Kumar posted for February 24 final hearing on petitions challenging the Presidential Order of 1950 limiting reservation to dalits among Hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists.

It also made the national commissions for minorities and scheduled castes parties to the pending petitions, issued notices and asked for their responses. The SC commission has said it had no objection to reservation given to dalit Muslims and Christians but had asked the Centre to ensure that it did not carve out quota for them from the existing 15% for SCs.

The government had said that any change to include dalits, who converted to Christianity and Islam -- both religions not recognising any caste-based division -- had to be left to Parliament and could not be done by courts.

Petitioner Centre for Public Interest Litigation (CPIL) argued through advocate Prashant Bhushan that the SC list should be prepared based on socio-economic conditions rather than on people's religion.

He asked: "How is it that a dalit Hindu, Sikh or a Buddhist is eligible for reservation but not a dalit Christian or Muslim? Is this not discrimination on the basis of religion which is prohibited under the Constitution?"

He said the Presidential Order of 1950 had originally envisaged reservation for dalit Hindus alone. In 1959, it included dalits from the Sikh community and then in 1990 Buddhists.


The questions framed by the highest court were:

* Whether a provision in Constitution (Scheduled Castes) Order, 1950, saying "no person who professes a religion different from Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism shall be deemed to be a member of a Scheduled Caste" is unconstitutional and void?

* Whether the existing reservation benefits to Scheduled Caste people professing a religion different from Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism can be diluted by extending them to dalit Christians and Muslims?
