Karunanidhi, OBC means Other Backward Class and not Other Backward CASTE! OBC reservations are based on the fundamentals of ECONOMIC condition of a Person and not as a bulk Reservation for any Caste. It was only SC & ST reservation that was based on Caste, coz those populations were traditionally shunned in India. Adding Groups like Lingaayats, Gowda's in Karnataka, and Jats in Rajasthan shows what a farce this reservation for OBCs has become. These communities that I stated above are more rich than even the upper castes in those states. Add to that the fact the Rich amongst the so called castes identified as OBCs are not even eliminated from this "freebie", it clearly shows what kind of vote bank politics this reservation is all about!
Recently I read that this guy Kalanidhi Maran who owns Sun Network is a billionaire. Now any OBC in this forum, can you tell me why such a rich person deserves reservation? And if he can get reservation, then why not a POOR but meritorious Brahmin Kid from Tamil Nadu?
