Thank you for raising the right issues. If congress govt belives for last 60 years that all OBC / SC / ST / Minorities are only suffering and need reservations then first they should accept that as their failure and should resign from politics for at least 10 years or they should give reservations to all based on their caste and make india a 100% resrved country. ( How shameful this will be ) or PLEASE scrap all quota and let us treat all as same. I wish some day will some one have the wisdom and courage to take this stand.
poor people in every community should form a separate association and collect money from the rich and use it for themselves. in every community there are rich and poor. Brahmins should help them selves and stand on their own legs. Chirstians are stand on their own legs.

All-encompassing reservation makes people lazy, lethargic and dependent. It decreases self-respect. People should be provided with level-playing field. Make undergraduate education compulsory, free and homogeneous, that is, all students (without exception) go through the same curriculum, except in languages. Those needy must be provided freeships to cover their fees, books, stationery and living expenses. After undergraduate education, let it be a free for all.

christians already asking for reservations. forget reservations, christian church suggests candidates to their party (congress) in kerala. meaning - reservation in elections too.
also, ms. teresa shared dias with the christian missionaries who were asking for reservations. she later regret that decision, and claimed innocense. saying she didnt know the agenda...(!!)
also, many christian converts are occupying jobs meant for sc / st. effectively enjoying the benefits of reservations.
and there are 157 kind of christians in kerala alone, who do not visit each others church !! what do you have to say about them ?
the andhra cm - who is a christian convert himself - but dont want to give up HINDU name is going out of way to get the reservation benefits for christians in education and jobs.

Let bygones be bygones. Why spoil future of this country by thinking too much about the misdeeds done in the past? Lets not repeat the same in the name of revenge.
u should see the situation that acts itself out during the admissions... students who read day and night and get good rank do not get admission whereas someone with a very high rank just walks in and can select course/college of choice. this is pathetic and depressing. u cannot right the wrong with a blunder... u cannot right the wrong with a blunder... ultimately quality is suffering... by all means provide ALL possible help for a student to study and get a good rank but don't discriminate at the time of admission

The issue is not of poverty...even the poorest Brahmin who works as a clerk finds the money to buy books or subcribe to a library...he reads and learns cos there is a vibrant culture that runs in his veins..a culture that makes him seek knowledge and make a diference to society...and that is cos education runs in the family line...
On the other hand, ven the richest SC/ST guys don't have this culture running in their veins..so, they would spend money on garish clothes, makeup, cosmetics and all superficial and utterly dispensable luxuries that don't add an iota of knowledge to make him a better human being...and that is only cos of discrimination by which basic education was denied for centuries...maximum learning happens in school and he never saw the gates of school...

How could it be possible for Brahmins to rule other communities 50 years back when we Indians as a whole were slaves to Britishers and Mughals for 500 years combined before we got independence? This is beyond my comprehension. This is a propaganda by politicians to create divisions in the society and rule over them by inciting one against other. If anyone has doubt he can check how OBC is eating into the privileges of SC/ST and how much of mutual respect is there among various communities even without anyone having even "dubious' history of exploiting other. This is all political game..the sooner we understand the better we will be able to nail these politicians.
