Reservation thaka uchit.not on the basis of cast, but economic condition (in some cases may also be on basis of religion in specific regions). people who belong to backward cast but have become economically and socially fwd, should not b allowed to use the opportunities of cast.system should be properly monitored and properly implemented. quota system is not a way to uplift a whole class.education and opportunities at the grassroot level is still unavilable, this reservation debate should not be a mask on these larger and related problems.
It's also worth thinking, when the dropout rate is so much among the students who r availing the quota system, the grooming of these students is to b blamed,the unavailability of the opportunities is to b blamed.eradicating the quota system is not a solution. our thoughtful govt believes in upliftment of the backward class by increasing the quota and then not caring about how many of them are able to pass through the system.
The increase of opportunity for backward class is a necessity, but it should not come at the cost of other students.Thus the govt. is increasing the seats by 50% in one year!! if the funds were there, infrastructure improvement is possible, isn't increasing the no. of seats for higher education alwas a aim? Then why increase it just at the time of this huge controversy???
Well friends,isn't this govt. amazingly thoughtful?
The questions with which you end your post are spot on..i doubt whether, even the highest authorities on this matter will have any answers to those..i completely agree with you that reservation is indeed necessary..in a society like ours where still there is rampant discrimination on the basis of caste of an individual, according to me reservation is a window of hope for the opressed..apart from improvements required at the grassroot level what i feel is..those people from the backward classes who get their oppurtunity and are capable of establishing themselves have some responsibilities towards the enlightment of their communities and the backward classes on the whole..they are the best people who would know exactly the areas where maximum work needs to be done for the betterment of the community..and accordingly plans can be devised for the betterment of these people..
