Dear rajeswari or what ever, Your statement says it all,You need crutch of reservation ( many obcs and scs/sts who have posted here seem to have a confusion between a clutch and a crutch!)You need the crutch for you and for a long time to come for your future generations too.You have alredy condemned the yet to be born generations in to backward? Great.You obvviously know a lot about what type of genes you are carrying.Reserved genes! Make them express better and out going and forward thinking genes.
Who says OBCs or SCs and STs are looking for charity by seeking reservation? They are DEMANDING their RIGHT, they are demanding undoing of an injustice done to them for centuries. Reservation is no generosity of upper or ruling castes of India. It is a commitment made by visionary and conscientious leaders of this country to give level playing ground so that the OBCs/SCs/STs would one day get to compete with the upper castes on equal footing.
Well said! cant agree more with everything you said. I'm a non IIT working in US. It is a pleasure to see almost all the institutions giving credit to IITs and IIMs all over the globe. And now this sensless politicians (including the likes of Manmohan singh - what is the use of he studying in Oxford. Huh!) will destroy that also. I'm surprised to find these kind of people born in the same land where great visionaries such as Swami Vivekananda were born. Shame on them! and Shame on the people who voted for them. I'm a OBC by category, but i strongly oppose any sort of discrimination whatsover. I'm positive that when youth comes into politcs there will be an end to this mindless gimicks and we will see real growth of our nation way far more efficient then the last 50 years. thanks for writing on this subject.
What an inspiring real life story! The so called self-pitying boys and girls should read this and get inspired.
As he irightly puts it, the cruches have their limitations. First of all you should know how to balance on cruches. Then you go to the next stage of manouvering it to make it more friendly. After some time you are mentally out of all inhibitions and wish to educate, get employed, travel and be seen everywhere. Politicians want to stick the cruch upon OBCs permanent, so that they continue to get sympathy votes and thrive.
I wish to throw a challenge to the Government. Let one State stand up to the demand and promise seat in colleges for all aspiring students irrespective of class, caste or other manmade differentiations. If that State tries and succeeds in that, the reservation will naturally become a non-issue. Any takers?
Prof Gopinathan's deliberations on the reservation issue is an excellent revelation on the issue so far I have come across. It is to be very widely publicised for saner sense to be prevailed upon the present set of vote-bank politicians focussing on immediate gains lacking long term vision and welfare of the future India.
Well done. I appreciate your stands. The article and all messages should be forwarded to all MPS who all are supporting quotas only for voting and not whole-heartedly. Because, if they and their family members would have an occasion to hospitalis, they will definitely seek good hospitals and good doctors and not enquire for a doctor who come from quota system.
The Moguls converted forcely from Hindu to Muslim,the British divided Hindus and Muslims and now leaders are dividing Hindus --- horrendous caste divisions.

This is true. The corrupt Indian politicians have learnt a thing or two from the erstwhile British Raj and - and repeated the horrors of divide and rule in India. The FCs and OBCs/ SC/ ST are all Indians first and no one wants the other to suffer. But when one group is discriminated against to favor another, jealousy and hatred inevitably come to fore. Thus you see FCs beginning to feel angry with those OBCs/ ST/ STs who are supporting reservations. We all need to understand that the corrupt politicians are dividing us. We need to throw away our greed and become one against the corrupt politicians and ask for the end of caste-based reservations. Instead, we must all demand that the reservations only remain to help all those who are truly economically challanged, whatever caste they come from.
I made my begining with Basic Primary Schools in the villages of UP in Hindi medium, Did my graduation form MP in hindi medium, completed my PG with Physics then after persued my Engineering Degre e in Electronics . Started my career with one of the larest PSU of India and for last 17 years working with world's one of the largest MNC at a senior position.
Only last year my father told me that we too belong to one of the OBC defined by Indian/State government. I am proud of what I am and my three brothers have achieved inspite of being OBC but without any reservation. Protections make anything crippled. Let all reservations be abolished immediately. Goo Luck to insane Arjun Singh

This is what the politicians wont realise. You are the perfect example of why the crutches should be thrown away. The confidence is evident! Good luck to you.
Well written article which is 1000% correct and it is the high time, people should come forward and stop the politicians make their roads into casteism in India. Otherwise, we will be going back to 19th century.
