Could you please tell me how can I remove myself from the "Forward Caste" status even though my entire household and all close relatives were slightly better than beggers. I was not pampered by anyone.I had to fight severly for scholarship. And when I learned hard and got a moderately good ranking in my engineering entrance (I don't claim I had great ranking, but far better than some of my friends who had all fortunes), I was bypassed because of my "Forward Caste" label.. Tell me how can I remove the "Forward Caste" status?.. The number of members in my so called caste is very less and economically very weak, so we don't have that kind of political support for including us in the backward community list.. What can we do??
