I won't agree with you, if you are really talent don't expect somebody to provide you a free toilet papers when required. work hard and see how to earn it. Mostly reservations are misused (not all the time), government started it with good cause and now it's became politics (that's different stories). Still people in villages are not getting proper exposure (in education) to things happening in urban. They don't know what book to read to get into IIT (Did you help them ? instead of sitting in the street and fighting with government. Don%u2019t expect his father to teach him abt CAT, IIIT exams). Also govt should make sure that the reservation is used only once in the family (I knew it will be difficult, we can ask for it).
