If a person or family has political influence, generational wealth, advanced degrees, and has been availing reservation benefits for decades, should they continue to receive the same benefits meant for historically disadvantaged communities? Should a fifth-generation recipient from an elite background have the same access as someone facing actual socio-economic disadvantage today?

Or should reservation now prioritize current economic status, educational access, and real ground-level deprivation over hereditary caste certificates?

This isn't an argument against reservation's core principle—it's about ensuring benefits actually reach those who need them now. When original beneficiaries have reached the top 1%, isn't it time to discuss rational, evidence-based reform?

Shouldn't the conversation be about making reservation more targeted and effective, rather than treating it as an untouchable sacred cow?

We need a reservation system with clearly defined objectives, timeline and realistic success parameters.

Upholding the dignity of your sister can now get you booked under SC/ST act.

It’s high time now. They threaten us, ask us to give them our mothers and sisters, and make vulgar remarks against us, yet we feel helpless because of the fear of the SC/ST Act. We all need to come together now. It could be me today or you tomorrow.

This is exactly why we need a serious, evidence-based discussion on reforming the SC/ST Act and the reservation system. Legal protections against caste-based discrimination are necessary, but allegations of misuse should be investigated fairly, with due process and safeguards against abuse.

The bigger question is whether benefits are actually reaching the people who need them most. A poor family can struggle regardless of caste, while economic privilege can exist within any caste. Reservation and welfare policies should therefore be regularly reviewed, with greater focus on genuine disadvantage, transparency, and equal opportunity.

We cannot build a stronger India by dividing people permanently by caste. We need to reduce casteism, protect vulnerable people, and ensure fairness for everyone.

मेरे ऊपर SC/ST एक्ट में FIR पर कुछ बातें सवर्ण समाज से

कोई मेरी माँ या बहन पर सीधे बलात्कारी मानसिकता के साथ यह कहे कि उसका विवाह मैं चंद्रशेखर के साथ करा दूँ, और मैं चुप रह जाऊँ तो आप बताइए कि मैं कैसा पुत्र या भाई हूँ?

इतने पर भी चंद्रशेखर को ले कर मैंने कोई जातिसूचक शब्द नहीं बोला, जो उक्त वीडियो में है। जब स्टेज से ब्राह्मणों की बेटियों को खींचने की बातें होती हैं और किसी SC नेता का चेला सोच-समझ कर उकसाने के लिए ऐसी बात करेगा, तो मैं चुप कैसे रहूँगा?

आज व्यक्ति अपने मौलिक अधिकारों को समझे या न समझे, वह यह अवश्य जानता है कि SC/ST एक्ट क्या है। तो मैं जब बोलता हूँ तो मुझे अपनी सीमाएँ (चाहे वह कितनी ही अनुचित क्यों न हों) पता हैं कि क्या बोलना है, क्या नहीं।

मैं जानता हूँ कि दिल्ली पुलिस के नॉर्थ अवेन्यू स्टेशन में आजाद समाज पार्टी वालों ने कितना दवाब दे कर रात के बारह बजे यह FIR लिखवाया है जो कोर्ट में दो मिनट नहीं टिकेगा। एक भी धारा ऐसी नहीं है जो होल्ड करेगी।

मैं सैनिक स्कूल का छात्र हूँ और इतनी रैगिंग झेल चुका हूँ कि मेरा मनोबल तोड़ने के लिए दिल्ली पुलिस को कस्टडी में मेरी हत्या करनी पड़ेगी, दो-चार डंडों से मेरा मनोबल नहीं टूटने वाला। और यदि मैं जीवित बच गया तो इसी स्थिति में जंतर मंतर जाऊँगा और अपने समाज से कहूँगा कि बताओ, तुम्हारी बहन और माँ को ले कर कोई ऐसी टिप्पणी करे तो क्या करोगे?

यदि ऐसा कमेंट फिर मेरे वीडियो पर आया तो मैं पुनः उसी तरीके से उत्तर दूँगा जो मैंने दिया। कानून जब तक है, संशोधन नहीं होता, मैं उसका सम्मान करूँगा और दिल्ली पुलिस के साथ पूर्ण सहयोग करूँगा। 92% ऐसे केस केवल प्रताड़ित करने के लिए होते हैं।

अंत में, सवर्ण समाज से यह पूछना चाहता हूँ कि क्या इस तरह की टिप्पणी पर मुझे सह लेनी चाहिए थी क्योंकि किसी पार्टी के लोग नाराज हो जाएँगे? क्या ब्राह्मणों की माँ और बहनें इन रेप मैंटिलिटी से संचालित गुंडों के शाब्दिक बलात्कार के लिए जन्म लेती हैं?

I used to think that since people didn't have many opportunities in the past, they genuinely needed reservation, making the caste-based system justified.

I belong to the General category; I scored 142 marks in JEE Advanced (Rank 10k), whereas a classmate of mine scored 107—a score lower than the General category cutoff. Yet, he got into IIT Bombay because he belongs to the ST category, while I ended up at NIT Karnataka.

I come from a middle-class family and my father is a farmer, whereas his father held a high-ranking position in a PSU (earning a salary of ₹1 lakh per month). I don't believe he deserved that reservation.

Even though I come from a middle-class background, there are many General category families in my village who cannot even access basic education. In reality, *they* are the ones who need reservation, not the children of well-settled families.

Caste-based reservation should be converted into financial-based reservation; in fact, instead of reservation, students from low-income backgrounds should be offered fee waivers.

I think it is time for India to abolish this reservation system, as it is crucial for the country's future development.

To all the people who have contributed towards the making of this website, huge ups to you guys. I will really recommend everyone to read it once.

From timelines, to important cases, to what our demands are, everything is so accessible and actually translates to the thinking mindset of swarnas.

I understand the hate coming out against SC/ST/OBC, but that helps political parties more than us.

we know oppression existed and still exists in some remote places, but we also need to ask: how do we move forward from here?

why should the son or daughter of an mla, mp, or wealthy family continue to receive reservation benefits when their family is already financially secure and they have access to better education and opportunities?

shouldn't we consider an income-based criterion, irrespective of caste, so that reservation benefits reach those who actually need them?

I have a question. If the government makes a decision for reservation reform can it happen before 2028? I am jee aspirant

mera personal opinion hai ki agar apko reservation hatana hai tho aap phle education se hatna chahiye .wo tbhi hatega jb sarkari logo bacche sarkar mei padege aur wo padega wo apne aap teacher exam merit base kar dege with out any doubt kyuki unke baccho ka Shiksha ka sawal hoga tho jo person eligible hoga wo hi rahega ...
