I agree with "greatrr ".. And if that helps, I am also an IIT Alumni and am working in US. No plans to go back to India.
Dividing people on the basis of caste, color, creed, sex, or religion is WRONG. It may help Arjun Singh or Congress to WIN some votes. But it will hurt India badly in long term. The IITs which have been generating the top cream layer of country will soon be generating 'second class' engineers. Reason 1. reservation. 2. very low "cut off" marks for reserved class in the entrance exam.
Instead of making reservation on basis of caste, GOVT. should provide facilities, incentives and opportunities to the poor people. So that they can join the main stream. Provide them cheaper education & free books BUT please DONT lower the admission standards.
