riots
by ajay on Jun 06, 2010 06:07 PM

yes in india there should be always riots on the basis of hindu-mushlim-sikh-ishai.
if it is not sufficient then there should be riots on the basis of castes.
if it is also not enough ,then on the basis of region,language(look at raj thakrey).
since we are vote- bank based democracy there should be always riots.
jai ho politics, jai ho politicians.......

We need subcaste based census , subcaste people shd be counted.

Time to file a PIL in supreme court to ensure counting each subcaste population and reservation should be provided based on subcaste , in OBC (few dominant caste like meena ,etc) are eating whole of the reservation pie , which is unacceptable , gurjars should get separate pie of reservation so that they are not afraid of meenas ,etc .

remove caste and reservation system
by Mahesh Deore on Jun 03, 2010 10:48 PM

Why rediff given title as "campaign against caste in census"? The title itself is WRONG. It should be "campaign against caste". 'in cencus' should be removed.

In fact our system is widely based on "reservations" and for that we should know the exact figures. Unless until there are reservations the caste will remian and for that we should know those numbers.

So either remove caste and those reservations (for united India) or we should include caste in cencus to take better decisions.

Census and high caste people!!
by the unique on May 30, 2010 08:17 PM  | Hide replies

High caste people oppose caste based reservation because of their opposition to lower caste people getting reservation in jobs and education.Can high caste people allow their family member to marry member of low caste?can this socity give respect to low caste people same like others?

I am against caste based census if only intention of higher caste people is good!!

In current situation, so called high caste people are actually disgraced people deprived of opportunities in education and employment.
Even so called one lower caste don't marry another so called lower caste - so what you had said about marriage makes no sense. For marriage, no matter if it is higher or lower caste - it has to be in same caste.

This campaign is nonsense
by Saravanan Subramanian on May 30, 2010 06:59 PM  | Hide replies

This campaign is a true nonsense. Whoever is against cast based census, are they ready to throw away their caste when it comes to reservation in studies and jobs? Why do you need your caste then?
Rediff and others who support this campaign - just be sensible.
At least caste based census will give true picture on the status and percentage of people belong to each caste that can be used to streamline the reservation system properly.

I am fully in support of economy based reservation and abondaning caste based reservation. But as long as caste based reservation is in practice, caste based census is also must.
If you oppose caste based census, first caste based reservation should be scrapped.

Caste has always been misused by politicians and in current India there are several caste based policies in all walk of life. Either we should remove all the present schemes based on caste or we should do a caste based head count. Only people below certain income level should get the benefits that too only limited to one or 2 child per family.

Yes Why Not!!!!
by Yogesh Sharma on May 27, 2010 11:37 AM

Indian politics since history known is caste biased.

In modern times; post independence all politics has revolved around caste only.

The census of caste basis should be allowed.

This gives leverage to the political parties to decide there mandate on stronger caste oriented strategy.

This is the tool where flying colors of Indian Politics would be seen in next decades.

I strongly recommend this style of census.

Lets see what the politicians can do on having this data.
