U may be proud of ur state but no need to compare with other states without any evidence to support ur opinion. This shows that we are happy being a frog in the well. Is reservation means giving full rights? Go & check elementary education standards, female infanticide, child labour, basic amenities, corruption etc of T.N. The real poor & downtrodden are still suffering and the creamy layer among the so called backward castes are reaping all the benefits. Hats Off to vote bank backward politics of Tamil Nadu where every major caste & everybody who belongs to it are treated as backward making fun of the very concept of backwardness!
