Reservation - at two levels (economic & social)
by Ramesh Bha on Jun 05, 2007 08:47 AM

Nehru's reservation policy goals have been long twisted out of their original purpose. Anyway, here is my proposal for future.

Economic condition and Reservation:
-> Primary and Secondary education should be provided free for children whose parents are ecnomically backward by both public and private educational institutions. Education for students who can afford it should be provided at a cost.
-> For higher education, **good students** whose parents are not financially capable of educating their children should be given financial aid in both public & private institutions so they can compete in the real world.
-> Employment for economically backward should be provided through "affirmative action" by both private and public companies. SOPs will be provided by Central Govt for those whose performance on "affirmative action" is exemplary. THERE SHOULD BE NO FIXED RESERVATION IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS.

Social Condition and Reservation:
-> If the rights of an individual are violated because of belonging to a social group, community, religion, caste or creed, then a legal action should be allowed against those who perpetrate it and/or abett it.
-> There should be a social and political solution worked out to represent all communities in the local, state and central governments. This will ensure the law makers to be fair.
-> Religious leaders should be consulted and utilised in an appropriate manner to influence communities during troubled times.
