I understand your concern and it is very much valid. Can you believe, even our air force have reservations for SCs? Infact I was a victim. Can we stop that aswell? I doubt we can.
This reservation issue is no longer just a question of upliftment of downtrodden but it involves political power too. Opposing this vehemently will draw a battle line, with the so called "FCs" at one side and others on the another side. Infact the so called reservation lobby has more numbers in parliament than who oppose it. So my suggestion is that we should support it with necessary checks and balances. Also we need to have a mechanism to overcome the ill-effects of reservation. Moreover, I knew few of my friends who got job because of SC reservation and certainly they are not unfit for the job. One of my friend joined the special commando police force as a Sub-inspector. He was with the STF to capture Veerappan. After the success, he is now been promoted as ASP. So reservation is just not all bad. I have had first hand experience how socio-economic equation changes with a decent job. At this our we need to take decision with understanding and unemotinaly using our brains and not our hearts.
