RE:OBC Reservations
by Larsen Keats on Apr 24, 2007 04:06 PM

Solution without thinking about the problem! You say all OBCs except the creamy layer should be provided reservation, because they are well-off. That means those who are not well-off economically should be provided reservation. Pause to think, Sir, are poor people from OBCs only? Not at all. Your logic would have had some sense if you had said all poor people irrespective of caste or religion or gender or region. Think!

Once you have done that, then you need to think whether reservation is a cure for poverty. It is not. Read Amartya Sen's articles if you don't believe me.

It is strange that no one seems to be thinking about what is the real problem we are wanting to solve, and what are the best ways to solve it.
