Story of a Brahmin
by ASHOK on Apr 29, 2007 03:49 AM

I am aware of a Brahmin, his grand father was a shopkeeper with a small shop in a nondesript Himachal Village. Grandfather worked hard throuhout his life and took care of his family of 4 children. His elder son was just metric pass and worked hard as a clerk and retired as head clerk with 3 children. Elder sons (Only son )could study uptill MSc Physics and got job on a open merit exam to ONGC but disillusioned left ONGC after serving for 7 years and training whole batch of SC/ST's who were never interested in working or making ONGC as their career. Rather all these SC/ST's were earning ONGC money and preapring for IAS. Finally almost all of them left ONGC except few.
What a waste. Anyhow this man also left ONGC as a disillusioned person.
He worked for US multinational and became its India chapter chief. He was so much against quota system that he sent his son out side India ( as he never wanted to load Indian Industry as well as education system, by taking job for him self or seat for his son in IIT) . He himself became Consultant to global multinationals, now wants to leave India.
Has earned in Dollars to contribute foreign excahnge to India's kitty,

So that SC/ST/OBC can get what they want.

All through I see a story of strugle to improve self without begging for/against reservation.

Well that is my story.

By now I have paid more than 50 lach INR as income tax to Govt. of India, what else these politicians want from me.
MY BLOOD ??? Well if you all SC/ST/OBC are happy to take my blood than take it, I have lived and seen enough of it.

Or else work and share some hard earned experiences to take INDIA to global competition. Instead of talk about Dravidian/Aryans/Manuvad etc.
Neither me nor you can rewrite history , but we can toghether write India's FUTURE.
I love my country I do not want to leave it.
I want to work for it.
If you OBC/SC/ST feel my father/grandfather and myself has done injustice to your cause than I will be willing to leave India.
