Forget it Ram, if the politicians could understand the meaning of the phrase "affirmative action" India would be a far better place to live today.
Anyways, what's the big deal on IITs and IIMs that they must be excluded from reservations? If seats are reserved in all colleges across India then are IITs and IIMs outside the country?
Technically the government is correcting it's mistake (or fixing a bug in IT parlance) by including the IITs and the IIMs in the global net.
Credit must not be taken away from citizens like me who vote for such politicians. I am impressed on what kind of mess these politicians can create.
I also wonder why Pradhan Mantriji and Rashtrapatiji are mute spectators to such ruthless, archaic policies. Sometimes I wonder what leadership any of our great luminaries demonstrate in the face of controversy.
