So if you are creamy layer, why do you need reservation? Are you too stupid to get admission on merit? I have a friend who is OBC and both of his parents were professors. He used to apply in the general category.
Because I believe the current system does no good to anyone and it is institutionalized discrimination against a significant section of the society--- poor people without reservation. I would like to see a study how reservation has actually helped the ST/SC communities. As I said before I am very doubtful it has. All my life I have only seen already well off people taking advantage of it.
My question is simple .. its the brahmins (who were the top of the food chain on varna) who do all the whining when it come to reservations.
However, the rest of the OC communities and OBC- Creamy layer people,
they don't cry they don't write that my coommunity is sufferning etc etc..( I also come from General category and I don see that much drama done by us on this )
Its the brahmins who say i'm being discriminated, im being punished for no fault of mine... they think the whole OC is made up of them alone...
This is the sad truth.. the villians who institutionalized the mistreatment of the poor SCs and STs who gleefully created untouchability, created the restriction on the ppl 's entry to temple (crazy kerala brahmins took it further and included untouchability to brahmins of other states)
And now they are the ones making the most noise against reservations...
look at the irony..
I'm glad god is bringing justice... I just hope to see the day SC and ST get back on them and maybe chuck them outta temples?...
If past crimes matter so much today, then Gyanpapi Mosque can also be destroyed. By that logic today's Muslims in India can be cut down for crimes done over the last few centuries. Dalits should kill some Jats. In that case Chinese should invade Japan. By that logic India should invade Britain and take their crown jewel and so on.
@hinduguy - I am all for reservation based on economic status alone. Money does not differentiate between the rich and the poor, the forward or backward. In case of so called backward classes a cap on a time frame should be kept. Also the reservations should never extend beyond the creamy layer. Now what do we see?
It's mostly the urban and affluent so called brats getting in these reserved seats and leaving halfway - in institutions like IITs and IIMs.
The ones who need education still linger on in the remotest corners of the country - deprived of the most basic education - let alone graduate level studies.
Reservation comes in when you have failed completely to provide the basic requirements to the population. Then you need to prioritize, chose one over the other. Incidentally so called upper castes are numerically inferior, so the reservation system continues for petty votebank politics.
And I don't believe even Narendra Modi can do much about it. If he does, he would be one of the ablest statesmen of all times. Time will tell.
Actually i also want to see mayans go spain and burn all bible and cathedals, as spanish burnt mayan religious books and symbols.
But I want justice to start at home...
Although I am in GEN category for no fault of mine or my ancestors... I still support reservations to bring justice to the SC and ST ppl who have no idea what is IIM or AU or DU... I am smart enough to take care and thrive.. as our admissions are not banned, but just made tougher...
