bring back brahmins as rulers
by Phantom The Ghost who walks on Apr 30, 2007 09:23 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

From the article, it looks like brahmins occupied most of the Govt. posts in early 1900s - It is well known now, how much corruption has crept into the Govt. offices. Maybe bringing back the brahmins to these offices would be a great idea. This could probably ensure that Govt. offices function smooth and corruption free - even benefiting the so-called "lower castes" much better than at present - Especially since social stigma(ta) such as untouchability and other ills have been more or less eliminated ...

The corruption was there even in 1900s. As at that time India was under British rule, the corrupted and useless brahmins put the blame on British. If we bring back the brahmins that would do more harm...for example..the former
ex-chief minister of tamilnadu. None of the politicians could be compared (corruption perspective) with our ex-chief minister.

Karunanidhi is incorrupt? Ha, ha, ha, thanks for making my day as a very laughable one. It is beyond a shadow of doubt that Brahmins are the least corrupt and corruptible

The root cause of corruption is Brahmins. They have divided the society and are looting the poor sons of the soil till today.

whatever. higher caste will be higher and lower caste will be lower as long as there is reservation system-mentality never changes.

read it as "caste system" not "reservation system". as long as caste is there, reservation is a MUST.
