there r many hardworking and deserving students in brahmins who really deserve seats in top government collages but there r seats reserved for all the castes except brahmins in tamil nadu because of this reasons they are deprived of their oppurtinity in getting into a good collage,i thing brahmin's should also have reservations.

of course, brahmins need reservation.though they score high marks they are not able to get a merit seat because of this utter ridiculous concept called reservation.if you can provide quota for all other community,then why not for brahmins????

India is not MERITOCRACY like Taiwan or SHARIA like Saudi Arabia.
If merit is the criteria, India should NOT get Independence from British.

Since Hinduism is a covert mask for Casteism,
Indian Parliament must amend constitution to promote cultural and socio-economic DIVERSITY in Private Institutions,Temples,Judiciary and in Defense Services.

* 50% of Priests,Supreme Court Judges,Defense Staff must be from OBC communities.
* 35% Priests,Supreme Court Judges,Defense Staff must be from SC/STs.
* 15% of Priests,Supreme Court Judges,Defense Staff must be from OTHER Castes.

India must have reservations **till** 85% of all registered marriages are Inter-Caste.
This is the only way to STOP dis-integration of India.

You must do this till 85% of all registered marriages in India are INTER-CASTE or INTER-FAITH.

You must VOTE for candidates from your CASTE only.

Since Hinduism is based on CASTE hierarchies, it intrinsically seeds HATRED among your Children in India.
Hence,
* You must VOTE for candidates from your CASTE only.
* Only he can UNDERSTAND your culture and IMPROVE your socio-economic status.
* And do not worry if he is CORRUPT.
* You must vote him till 85% of all registered marriages in India are INTER-CASTE or INTER-FAITH.
This is the only way to STOP dis-integration of India.

Another hair-brained suggestion from New York. In any constituency, typically there are 10-15 candidates, where as the number âcastesâ could be anything upto 50. Where there is no candidate of oneâs caste, to whom should the voter vote for? And how is each voter supposed to know the âcasteâ of the candidate? Is each candidate declaring his/her caste? As for your suggestion that only a candidate of oneâs caste can understand oneâs culture and improve the socio-economic status â the logical question that arises is What has Ms Jayalalitha (supposedly a Brahmin) done for the uplift of the disenfranchised Brahmins in the past twenty years? What did Mr Vajpapee do? What has Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee done? Far from doing anything, the CPM leaders told the Commission for EBC that there are no poor among the unreserved caste in Bengal!!

New York, like many others of your ilk, you are an illiterate and a liar. Hinduism is neither one of caste-based hierarchies nor does it incite hate. The system of regimented caste-based hierarchy has infact been invented and popularised by the so-called Dravidian groups. It is they who have incited caste-hatred over the past eighty years unchecked by other parties/Human Rights groups/Media.

You say that voters must VOTE for candidates from your CASTE only. Only he can UNDERSTAND your culture and IMPROVE your socio-economic status. And do not worry if he is CORRUPT. In any constituency, typically there are 10-40 candidates, where as the number castes could be anything from 50-100. Where there is no candidate of oneâs caste, to whom should the voter vote for? And how is each voter supposed to know the caste of the candidate? Is each candidate declaring his/her caste? Even if people manage to know their caste and that of the candidates and vote for their caste candidates, the caste with the largest population will naturally win every time, then what use is the strategy of voting for own caste candidate? As for your suggestion that only a candidate of oneâs caste can understand oneâs culture and improve the socio-economic status â the logical question that arises is - What has Ms Jayalalitha (supposedly a Brahmin) done for the uplift of the disenfranchised Brahmins in the past twenty years? What did Mr Vajpayee do? What has Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee done? Far from doing anything, the CPM leaders openly lied to the Commission for EBC that there are no poor among the unreserved caste in Bengal and thus killed the aspirations of the poor among them!!

Why Indians are QUITTING Hinduism and not other religions?
by New York on Apr 10, 2009 09:04 AM  | Hide replies

Hinduism is nothing but covert mask for Casteism which intrinsically seeds HATRED among your Children in India.

Hinduism's caste system is a religious-based system of separating groups and keeping one class (Brahmins?) over everyone else.

In America there is no system in place today that forces people to remain separate or keeps one class subservient to another.
If you were born the son of a street sweeper, but excelled, you could become a doctor or lawyer or some celebrity or entrepreneur - and at the same time you would be fully accepted by your peers.

Not so in India. The caste system freezes everyone in place. It is extremely difficult - almost impossible - for someone from the lowest caste to rise in education and social status.

A Dalit would never be allowed to marry into one of the higher castes and would never be accepted as an equal.
And for a Dalit to make it into MEDICAL school or opening a RESTAURANT or become a member of high SOCIETYin India is very rare indeed.

Only by escaping from the grasp of Hinduism do they have much of a chance....
And you must vote for candidates from your caste only till 85% of all registered marriages in India are INTER-CASTE or INTER-FAITH.

New York, you are a liar, a cheat and an illiterate. In TN itself 18% seats in all courses are reserved for Scheduled Castes, while on All-India basis, 15% seats are reserved in each course including Medical. Besides, all other âopenâ seats are also available which can also be taken by the Scheduled Castes. In TN Medical Admission in 2008 alone, of the 278 of 1394 (i.e19.94%) seats have been taken by the so-called Dalits. As for the rest, anyone can open a restaurant since there is no law prohibiting anyone from running any business.

There is no such thing called Upper Caste. Nobody has been defined as such. Neither the Constitution nor the Governments recognise the expression Upper Caste. The expression Upper Caste is an illegal and unconstitutional invention. No section of the society has demanded the status of Upper Caste. Even the term backward/most backward is an invention. If people believe they are backward/most-backward, it is their headache. Nobody asked them to believe that they are backward. In any case, categorisation of people as backward/most backward is only a sleight of hand trick and anybody can be categorises as ‘backward’ or otherwise. For example, in TN, the Christians, the most educated people are also categorised as ‘backward’. The reason is obvious – too devour seats in the ‘reserved’ and ‘open’ seats. Likewise, Brahmins (having less than half a percent share in TN Govt jobs) are illegally categorised as forward though they have never demanded such a status. By the way, will you agree to having each of the 300 castes in the concoction called BC/MBC list having ‘proportionate’ share in college seats/jobs? The Sattanathan Committee of TN said that a few castes in the self-proclaimed BC/MBC list hogged disproportionate amount of seats. Did you oppose that? Did you ask for proportionate share for each of the 300 castes in the BC/MBC list? As said before, if you consider yourself as ‘backward/most-backward’ what can anyone

He is another ambitious actor politician
by bala sreenivasan on Apr 08, 2009 04:54 PM  | Hide replies

The issues he is raising are real but not the man! He is trying to create a vote bank for himself and TN Brahmins are so dumb as to fall faor it. He is publicity crazy and highly narcisstic and can never work within the framework set by any party.
During the sensational aresst of Kanch Acharya a few years back, the fellow simply disappeared from the scene after projecting himself as someone very close to the Acharya and Kanchi Mutt for so long.
Another TN actor-politician who has an inflated sense of his importance who is best ignored.
He deserves the contemptuous treatment from Jayalalithaa

Bala,

Don't be a nut. When Kanchi Acharya was arrested, what can S.V. Shekher do? He is not ruling the state. He was only an MLA of the then ruling party (AIADMK). That does not mean he ran away from the scene. Where are you from? If you are in India you will know that S.V. Shekher is not projecting himself as another aspiring CM candidate. Even if he is so, what is your problem? If you think he is capable enough of ruling the state, elect him. Otherwise you just have to keep quiet and watch the proceedings.
