No I am not denied the opportunity to compete, but the fact that my ancestors were denied such opportunities means that the evolution of my genes haven't kept pace with yours. So when we compete, you have an unfair genetic advantage over me. Only a bit of push for me or a penalty for you can make the race truly of equals. This is what reservation is trying to achieve. I am sorry we cannot wish away what happened in our lives over the last 2000 years. We cannot go after the British or the Muslim invaders because we can seek justice from our fellow brothers, right?
