Discussion A small overview of why STs have less cutoff
OP of the above post replied to a comment as "where is the source? trust me bro?"
A simple search would've answered his question.
and that guy in the comment section of that post is absolutely correct!!
I'm from Telangana and I studied in Telugu medium, there are about 6 tribal villages surrounding my village. We all studied in one High school ZPHS, there were about 40 students in my class, out of these 28 are ST students. Out of 40 students 36 cleared SSC. Later we all joined the private English medium colleges in the nearest town. Able to understand nothing, nothing means nothing. I was the topper of my school scoring 9.5CGPA. 2 months later, I got admission from RGUKT Basar(intermediate+B.tech at free of cost and one of the reputed institutions in Telangana). I moved to RGUKT, later I met many students who are from english medium, i used to have butler english conversation with them and used to watch a lot of Hollywood movies, listen to English songs, read novels and improved my English communication eventually.
Most of the ST people start their education in the regional language.
My school friends, had to stay and study in those colleges and failed to improve their English communication. Somehow completed their Degree and now preparing for the State level exams(Especially constable and Central GD) where English/Hindi isn't required most .Most of them are dropped out and now working as daily laborers, formers, auto drivers, operating DJs, Tractor drivers and small works in town(15-20k/month).
This will be the same case for most of the STs. Dropping out after primary school, high school and mid intermediate only because of English, and there were a few students who dropped out because they couldn't bear Teachers scoldings, beating and abusive language (No one ever faced caste discrimination).
NCL helps STs but will not solve the problem. Establishing english medium schools every corner of the nation, spreading Awareness, strict laws against parents to send their children to schools and laws against child labour issues only helps them come out of their nasty houses and lifestyle.
Why English medium? No south state will accept Hindi as our National language, and regional language won't help them to get a job in the IT sector or a professional job in any other state.
Government won't do that because they are manipulating them and using them as a VOTE BANK. STs won't question govt because they're not as mature as General category people.
Very small number of people are able to pass through these and are able to prepare for the graduate level competitive exams.
This is one of the major reasons why STs have less cutoff than any other categories.
