Param - equating reservation with lack of talent (and not with lack of opportunity) only shows how decrepit a thought process can be, and by extending this logic to collapsing bridges, punctured out eyes, silting canals and every problem under the sun you only paint an illusive picture of those over-inflated 'cataclysmic negative impacts' due to reservation. And you come back to the age-old question of why politicians fly to the UK/US. Following your own logic, do you think there is not even a single doctor in India who did not use reservation to get their medical degree? Do you mean to say that doctors who enter medical colleges under open competition also have shaky hands and souped-up brains? Politicians go there because they THINK they can get better healthcare abroad. It need not necessarily be true. In fact, health tourism is picking up, and westerners come to India to get cheaper healthcare. On the contrary, there are also people in US who think their HMO physicians are crappy - did they get reservations, too? Instead of using anecdotal generalizations and preconceived notions as bludgeons against reservation, try to look into reality that always seeps around you.
