RE:Reservation Backward Community Versus Minority Community

My dear George I'm afraid you have missed the crux of the problem. The sections that you talked of, have already been covered under SC/ST quota. None is against those reservations, though the time stipulated by Ambedkar lapsed long long ago. Now ever since Aug 15, 1947, every government (mostly Congress) has been claiming that they have developed the country tremendously. Then, how come, huge chunks of castes far above the sections you talked of, have overnight become 'backward' to be given as much as 27% reservations? Reservations are a type of intoxicant which none likes to forgo, they demand their perpetuation for ever, or until the people of other castes become dead as a dodo. EsterAstir.
