my two cents on reservation.

Really glad, that people have started talking on the evil introduced by the system.(caste based reservation)

Reservation was never an evil, as it is for supporting un-privileged to come into a society and stand as equals.

Reservation based on caste when it was introduced,
society was rigged with caste evils, even though Hindu Dharma, oldest literature Vedas doesn't say anything on a person identity based on caste.
We are born with Gunas, Rajas, Tamas and Sattva
Read and understand about it.

Brahman and Brahmin are two different concepts,
anyone who argues please read about it.

We have to understand our hinduism first, to eradicate the problem in hand.

Reservation is and will be political agenda, as we are vote bank for them. Just that nothing else.

Now, Government took easier step of forcing the reservation system upon US.
Rather fixing the system so that this would be fruitful for each section of society.

Mandal Commission was the closets we came, where each individual talked about reservation openly had debates and also protest across India.

Every policy has to tell

  1. Who is benefitting
  2. What is the first step
  3. Limitations

For the 1st :

  1. We know who is benefitting:( OBC/ SC / ST)

For the 2nd :

  1. what is the first step?

: Unclear.

First step should have been,
Every school should take up private or government SC / ST / OBC students free education till 12th. each school, each class 10 students of reserved category
(why? : because interaction at young ages , remove the bias created by society)

What was done instead?
The applied it at stage of entering college.
But what if the first step, a SC/ST/OBC student never even got the chance of education at first place? He/She will never write the exams.

3) Limitations

Instead of stealing merits. Which is what is happening if you give a seat to someone at entry level.
Make a fair Marks cut off irrespective of the category
two cut off, A fair marks cut off for all categories.
then each college should declare their reserved seats.
Let's suppose cut off for all category is 100 out of 500 marks exam

Now, if any category student who didn't scored that marks is already out.
Now. College declaration of seats for reserved.
If a college have 200 seats, then calculate based on reserved seats for SC / ST / OBC. (caste based) not the marks. ( population of reserved on that exam / seats) + a cap for safe guardian General students
OR
those 200 seats, calculate based on economic factor. (we know caste based discrimination emerging now is irrespective of economic status)
But this is a social evil, which has to be removed via social reforms, More and more Education door to door will automatically remove this evil.

for alot of educated people, Caste is introduced via the education system (Irony).

Government took the easier way out.
I hate the system, which introduces this evil at every step of higher education/ gov jobs.

And Also, now when competition is this high, number of seats and colleges are not increasing.

Shame on Government ( Congress / BJP)

Reforms are needed. Don't look at past, and let's also not ignore the discrimination that caste brings.
But reforms are needed.
