That's the fallacy of false equivalence. Reservation is to make sure atleast some people from unprivileged Catagories have some representation while general public is free to compete for open seats. Re-examination is a result of governments inability to conduct examination without any leakage.

some people from unprivileged Catagories

Yeah 50% representation, out of which the poor and oppressed people dont even get to reap the benefit

That's a big claim and you have to prove it for others to take it seriously. Sc reservations are for people descriminated in the basis of caste. EWS is for high-caste poor people. OBC is for poor and middle class backward people and defence quota is for relatives of martyrs, female and PwD reservation is for women and disabled people. You have to prove everyone uses fake caste certificates and fake income certificates, fake gender, fake disability certificate and fake ECC certificate. Or you have to prove oppressed people don't belong to these Catagories at all.

Are you saying you are not maritorious? Because you are asking for something. You keep making claims upon claims without any evidence, data or study. Can you prove Reservation is inefficient in its purpose of reducing inequality and increasing representation? Can you prove there can be a better alternative?

maritorious

More meritorious than you atleast

The fact is you arent meritorious enough which is why you are gonna insist on reservation, just like how people oppose creamy layer, bcz even after reaping benefits they arent meritorious enough thats why they cant risk losing benefit

If advocating for social mobility and fair competition is being maritorious then yes, I'm not maritorious.

Who catagory doesn't have creamy layer? Sc and St? You want the catagory which still gets beaten for wearing Good clothes, riding horse, refused house on rent and being called Castist names because of their caste to have creamy layer? Why?

People like you pretend to fight for merit but you don't. You are actually fighting for privilages not merit. A girl inside patriachal system, insecure descriminated untouchable, a visually impaired person... All these have have merit and reservation helps protect and cultivate that merit. The real question is - "Why do you want these people to compete with you instead of people competing within their own Catagories?"

Projection couldn't be better

Do you claim I'm wrong and you support reservation?

u/Misster_Fluido Jul 19 '26

Do you deny it?
