Reservations: A tool used by Indian politicians to gain political mileage.
Ya... U guessed it rite. A MBA aspirant with a reduced chance (By 27%) of getting into IIM. It's actually logical to prepare for your cat exam than to post a blog. This is not going to stop me from writing this blog.
It all started with a party called Congress , which wanted to appease the people, by reserving seats in premier institutions. A political move well directed by 10 Janpath ahead of UP elections where OBC votes can play a major role in changing the fortunes of the party.
I am not against the uplifting of backward people (I really mean it).
The divide & conquer policy, adopted in a better manner than lord Dalhousie, is my point of concern. Uplifting of caste?? Religion?? Haven't we proceeded beyond Mandal or Mandir politics (Thanks to CNN-IBN).
The reservations for students in grass root level & financial aid for higher studies make sense. It should be monitory help. An economically backward guy (in any part of country) is suffering for 3 courses of meals.It's impossible for that guy to afford for a IIM form.
Why am i talking about that guy?? It's to lay emphasis on the point that "Backward caste people should not given the privilege. Economically backward people should be benefited from reservations".The system can be modified as follows
A person, who has taken advantage of any special reservations in his educational carrier,(Any caste based benefit) should be last person to be benefited. The Future generations (say his children) cannot utilize the caste benefit must be taken to ensure that rich people should not misuse the quota system.
I think it's sensible to prevent the inheritance of benefits to their children , since that person , graduating from a premier institute, will no longer be backward (economically)
The country must break itself from the complex threads of religion & caste. The country should go in the progressive path , not the UPA path.
