I don't know about north. In tamilnadu this OBC is being flatly misused because of it is >50% in reservation. Most of the people who got engr seats and medical seats with <90% marks are OBCs and lot of those people are economically way forward than the real "forward" community as branded by govt. There shouldn't be any OBC at all in between. Just forward and SC/ST ... that's all...Now as they achieved the aim of capturing the education market and Govt Jobs by illegal means thus depriving chances for real SC/ST people and forward community who are really poor, they want to stretch it to private sector. (because they realise now that future belongs to private sector). Political parties like also plays big role.
