Can't agree with u more. The so-called OBCs did not take to education as they had other pursuits equally remunerative.Today they control the economy, politics and are salivating for the jobs which are a different calling. Caste has stood them in good stead. A good carpenter, a good plumber is as difficult to get as an IIM seat today in our cities. I know carpenters who make 2/3 lakhs in every new apartment building in Bangalore. I know of barbers who have made films.An uneducated motor bike mechanic I know owns three flats in Chennai. The incompetent will always covet what they don't deserve and now they want to get it through legislation instead of hard-work and sweat.A country that disrespects its meritorious deserves to be damned. A Sam Pitroda, an Ambedkar was possible only bcoz of necessary effort. They want the growth to take place through the hard-work of the meritorious but want the fruits thereof without any contribution. It is this sense of entitlement internalised in them that is causing deep concern. An IIT, IIM seat has certain requirements unrelated to caste. But they feel just bcoz they belong to a certain caste, it's their right to get it. As u righly said, ultimately it boils down to the parasite politician despite whom India has progressed and which he cannot digest. He wants his dishonest clones everywhere.
