Reservation Policy - Castration of Merit

The UPA government, with their "Minimum Common Program" is so desperate to remain in power and secure their future in the next Lok Sabha polls by dividing the people of India on basis of merit. It is sad to see a person of stature Dr.Manmohan Singh dancing to the tunes of Sonia and sick ministers who can't even walk and talk properly (prouncing reservation as reJervaSion), but sitting at the helm and deciding about the future of the country. It is shame for a nation to go back to the dark periods after seeing unprecedented economic growth when Dr.Manmohan was the finance minsiter.

India is going to be divided on caste basis and no wonder if upper class and OBC clash on streets one day and fight like dogs. The HRD ministry may then intervene because they will fear that if they don't protect the OBCs who are fighting, they might loose their vote banks

If the Congress and its allies believe that this is done as a justice to the dalits, they are wrong. No genuine dalit is going to get benefitted by this scheme. The "rich" dalit will continue to be richer and poor dalits will continue to be poorer.

If a backward class person doesn't have facilities to study, provide him the infrastructure. Give him a place to live, food to eat, clothes and basic amenities. But please don't compensate on the marks. Our President APJ Kalam and so many innumerable stalwarts that India has produced in various fields didn't come up in life because they used OBC quota. THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL PURELY DUE TO THEIR MERIT.

The next generation will see heaps of useless idiots in top positions in all sections of the society. Imagine few places listed below where it would be interesting to see quota based system coming into force

  • The top software companies in India like Infosys or Wipro conduct should pick OBC candidates who scored just 10 out of 100 marks in their recruitment test whereas they may have to reject someone who would have scored 80 out of 100 because he is from an upper class and fell short. The same rule will be applicable during interviews - OBC may not take any interview whereas upper class have to go through rigorous 5 round interview

  • The head of premier investigation agency CBI

  • The head of ISRO

  • The Dean of IIMS, directors of IIT and heads of institutions such as AIIMS, JIPMER, XLRI

  • The Chief Justice of Supreme Court

  • The top 3 military positions - Army General, Navy Admiral and Airforce commander


  • WOW! India Shining ! Let the merit based selection go to hell and these kind of reservations lead India into darkness forever and let brain drain flourish pushing the country to 50 years back where it was.

    let the force be with and God give us the power and courage to fight this battle till the end. We cannot afford to lose this battle as this is the most important battle in the life of our times and history should not accuse of being cowards. It's time to show courage to stick to the cause. We need to motivate, encourage and persuade ourselves to the cause of equality and try to campaign actively, everyday, every night and every breath for this cause. Withdrawal of the strike by doctors does not mean anything to the campaign. The campaign will continue till equality is restored in the society. We need to keep the campaign alive and need to ensure that this fight continues for weeks and months till the government and Supreme Court make a case in our favor and abolish all forms of reservation. The fight has to be persistent and continuous and non-violent and there must be no let down and it must gather momentum every day and fall on the government like a huge juggernauting snowball. In a soceity where there is abundance creating quota does not adversely effect the legitmate receivers of benefit. In our country with its meager resources providing quota means harming the legitmate meritorious students. principles and ideals which were on the forefront during independence times have taken back seat with the current parliamentarians. The current breed of parliamentarians work for benefit of themselves and their community. They are unconcerned about their acts adversely effecting huge sections of population. They reinforce their arguments with seemingly irrational arguments. The current media quality has deteriorated to such low standards that emotional and irrational logic are made to sound seeming and reasonable. The need is to continue the agitation till the equality is resotred in democracy. Everyone must do their part in spreading the word and strenghtening the campaign.
