27% reservation for OBC
by pranab goswami on Apr 10, 2008 07:46 PM

All politicians/political parties will welcome 27 % reservation for "OBC" as this related to " VOTE BANK POLITICS".All of them will take credit for this.They know that VOTE is more PRECIOUS than conscience.I feel that reservation should be on "ECONOMIC CRITERIA".What will happen to millions of so called "upper caste" people who are far below the "POVERTY LINE" and some them may be meritorios,but are 'EBC"(ECONOMICALLY BACKWARD CLASS).Let us not divide this country on caste/lingustic basis for SAKE OF VOTES.LET THINGS WHICH ARE GOOD FOR ALL PREVAIL, IE RESERVATION FOR"EBC"
