RE:Foolish Reservation policy
by MJ Xavier on May 24, 2006 04:52 PM

Dear Friend:

Please try to understand something. All those who make it to medical colleges (or institutions of higher learning) based on exam scores are not necssarily the best and those left behind are definitely not the worst. There is raw talent rotting outside the system due to lack of opportunities.

Ambedkar who wrote our constitution is an SC. There are excellent civil servants from SC/ST and OBC communities who have made it through the reservation system. Rememeber that our civil service is comparable to the best in the world.

Though I am an IIM alumni, I know of several of my less fortunate country cousins who are much more brighter/intelligent than me but could not make it because they were denied the opportunity. Let us not have the parochical view that the upper caste people are the best in the world. Talents are available in every caste and community. Let us create opportunities for every one to exhibit their talents and make India the most developed country in the world.
