Dear Mr. Rohit, get a grip on the situation! U thnk such options wud not hv flashed in the minds of any politician? The fact plainly is such relatively ideal things are to no politician's benefit! Forget any 'leader' to think this direction!
U must realize, outside of the judiciary (atleast the Supreme Court in my opinion), it'll only be populist measures that count... and populism typically translates to unabashed ("no strings attached") translation of a thought.. y wud a 'backward' community agree to only have 1 generation worth of benefits, atleast voluntarily (given that it presently is without any time limit)? if this is so, y wud a politician take this fwd, risking bad image in the very community whose rights he's supposedly championing? Any practical reserved beneficiary will only want this to continue forever, and I don't blame him/her one bit...

Do u thnk politicians even care 2 hoots abt the 'religion' or 'caste' they champion? (BJP included)... In the context of a mis informed / illiterate electorate, I thnk politicians are only doing what is expected... Other than the boring solution of *all* people waking up and seeing the bigger picture of the long term future, there don't seem to be many non radical solutions to this!
