Vinod Ramanna's article: Cure worse than disease
by Ajay Dighe on Apr 26, 2006 11:50 PM

Vinod has rightly pointed out what we call in Gujarat as
"dukhe pet ane kute mathu" literally meaning pain is in stomach, but
cure is being done for head. It was a real frustrating feeling when my
friend who happen to be Scheduled Caste got in to Computer Science
course at University while I was with better percentage than him, was
awaiting in electrical engineering. That was the first time in my life, I
realized all are NOT born equal. Well, then I said, perhaps India is not
a right place for me. Vinod said is so true. Positive affirmation is the
policy in USA. Many disadvantaged classes exist here.
Especially Afro Americans who were slave in early history of America.
US is apologetic about that, but no reservation today for the slavery
their earlier generations had done in past. I am just venting out, but
be sure that thousands of young engineers / doctors are frustrated in
India because of unjust reservation policy for educational institutes,
jobs, promotions, If Ram Vilas and other guys were at power they
would have introduced reservation even in Infosys and Satyam.
I bet that, then these companies would not remain world class.
