Reservations

I wish i was born in one of the numerous listed OBC's/ SC-STs that are recognised by the Government of India, then

- I would not have to struggle hard to get a seat in the best Engineering/Medical College in India.
- I would not have to be worried about how my parents were going to pay my next installment of fees or how they were going to deal with the increase in the College Fees. (Simple my studies are subsidized and i would not have to deal with the hike).
- I dont have to slog my butt out and burn the midnight oil to secure a top rank in the University - Why u ask - Dude havent you heard, Arjun Singh plans to introduce Reservations even in the private sector.
I am pretty confident that by the next round of elections come, we will have reservations for OBCs/SC-STs in the Senior Management of every company and dont worry i wont have to work hard for that. All that i need to guarantee is i stay somewhere among the group of my fellow OBC's/ SC-ST's and i am safe. Forget the guys who might secure a 99% , who wants to compete fair.
No wonder they are called the "General" Junta Category. Dude we are the Privelidged ones.

BTW i also happened to catch a glimpse on the TV of students( who have spent their parents earnings trying to get a degree and a good career for themselves), being caught in our very own Arjun Singh's penchant to go for reservations. They have a right to protest in a democracy, but then getting whipped by lathis without the slightest hint of violence is something they did not bargain for.
Maybe if i was there i could have helped a few of them get out of the jail and avoid getting thrashed - How u ask me - Simple Dude - Flash my OBC/SC-ST Identification Card.

Enough of the Sarcasm.

I am sick and really tired of the way our Politicians seem to be treating every decision ( bar the Economic Policies ). Why rake up the controversy again - Mr.Arjun Singh.

Is that because you have been advised by the great old Congress party that this could be your last ticket to STARDOM and even if you fail, this might well be the last term of Politicking that you would have to deal with. So its a WIN ALL but LOSE very little for Arjun Singh. For Everyone who is familiar with the game of Chess, this would call for a Sacrifice from the great old Congress Party and in turn if this gamble pays off, it would be a master-stroke.
I hardly thought Mrs. Gandhi and her bunch of Cronies would be so adept at playing Chess games with the Normal Indian. I can visualise her playing the eternal savior by solving the matter amicably with her great *blah-blah-visionary-thoughts-and-sacrificial-behavior* after the matter has reached its violent cresendo. Till then she would be happy letting the matter rake up all the Print and Media Footage.

Even if this is of your own ingenuos brain, what possible justification can you give despite hearing the commission's report on not to go ahead with Reservations. Has this now become a matter of Ego to you and if yes, Is Your Ego worth more than a hundred thousand Student's lives and their careers?

Stop playing the politics of Casteism and deliver true/good governance.

if you think there was injustice meted out to the OBC/SC-ST then set it right by having enough free schooling,primary education. Setup Funds- Scholarships for deserving students so that they dont suffer due to lack of money, irrespective of the caste/creed they belong to. Dont you think people below the poverty line who are Brahmins deserve the same upliftment or you will Implement Mandal now, let their state run as is for the next 50 years, and come up with a new Mandal like bill then to uplift the people.
