Its such a crying shame, how complacent we can become. Typical "Koop Mandukaas" or frogs in the proverbial wells, admiring our personal patch of sky and thinking we hav hte whole world accounted for. We are armchair philosophers at best, escapists at the worst, who refuse (with rare individual exceptions) to face the fact that the world is passing us by in standards of excellence, and for this to happen in the field of education is simply disastrous. The policy of reservation is only going to create academic cripples, always whining and demanding specialised treatment,and not equipping them for tough competition outside this secluded and secure dreamworld.This suits all votebank hungry policy makers, and the beneficiaries of their policies are lulled into believing that it is for their own good, while actually it just erodes their capabilities even before they develop. While the world passes us by.
