Reservations
by chakak sharma on Jun 05, 2007 09:59 AM

About time we did away with reservations completely. In fact a phased process should have begun on expiry of the initial ten years as provided in the Constitution. All caste/religion/social grouping/tribe based concessions must be withdrawn immediately. The only criterion to determine the handicap of backwardness should be the financial weakness of individuals/families. To help such backward classes, financial aid must be provided in terms of free education, meals at school, cost of uniforms , exemption from fees for appearing in entrance exams. Admissions to institutions of learning and enrollment in jobs (public or private) must be on MERIT and MERIT alone.
Politicians - FOR GOD's SAKE, and for the sake of this country, Stop dividing the society on the basis of caste...etc and make this nation a land of EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES for all irrespective of caste, creed or religion as envisaged in the Constitution. So HELP US GOD.
