RE:Socialist caste
by Arun Tripathi on May 14, 2007 03:23 PM

The Indian constitution provides for equality in terms opportunities for all as most vital part of fundamental rights, and the same constitution talks about reservation for certain castes; thus allowing contradictions.

Equality in opportunity does not mean equality in luck and fortunes. Unfortunately, you are looking at the later. Dalits and villages produce half a dozen children on an average and then seek reservation as part of equal opportunities. Why don't they realise that if they cannot bring up a battalion, why at all produce one sample after every ten months.
