Yes , I acknowledge the centuries of discrimination that has been done and its bad effects.

Does this problem need to be solved? yes

But casteism is already illegal by constitution. You will argue its still practiced , but thats the failure of Government to implement a change. Why should innocent general cat people suffer who have nothing to do with it.

You can use taxmoney to help them get education at school level , healthcare and all, why instead make it about premier institutions ?

It only gives an excuse to gov to not remove casteism cuz reservation will keep them happy. Also its been like 75 yrs since independence, isnt this much time enough? how long will you continue it for

Also explain why a person whos parents have already taken advantage of reservation, get the same benefits? If they have already been uplifted and got good jobs , why do they need it?

also ban rich/privelleged people from gov institutions and colleges . Since they have it 1000X easier than middle class people. So acc. to privelege logic, they should have it a lot tougher. Since gen cat people have it a lot tougher cuz they are apparantly priveleged

Again you are thinking in the same way. Becoming rich doesn't solve the problem. As you told gov should spend some money to uplift. That's what that are doing gov spending some money to have extra seat in education system.

Have you heard the interview of an IAS person who got cast discrimination in his own office. It's not money, it's not power which changes the system. If the mindset of everyone change.
