Absolutely Pathetic

Today if I point a finger and say out loud - "You are part of a backward caste", its offending but getting a seat in a college on the same grounds isn't. Well I would say asking for reservation on the basis of caste is like asking a slap in your own face. Reservation is required for those who work and study hard but cannot afford the fees. People talk about abolishing the caste system and modernization but hold back when benefits like these are available. If changing castes were possible, OBC would be the most sought after caste and i'll try hard to change my so called Brahmin caste to OBC! After all who cares, I get the seat for having done nothing!!
