contd.. dear param, the comm which had concluded that the railways will never go out of red was headed by an UC, but lalu within one term made possible what no minister belonging to the so-called UC could do. brahmins and brahminism is dominant in bimaru states and their vicious domination has stiffled the growth of merit among the backward and marginalised section of society, wheares developed states from south and western india don't have brahmin domination and have rich history of social reforms. it is interesting to note that these states have systematically worked towards rescuing the socio-politico-economic spheres from the strangehold of brahmins and hence we witness overall prosperity in these states. its high time northern states also follow the pattern of southern and western indian states. regards
