Its a good observation, that one cannot buy their way into an IIT/IIM like some ivy league schools in the US. Its also a good idea that the government is considering opening more of these institutions, but what is really troubling is the fact, that the government is proposing a 50% reservation in these schools, (with the addition of the OBC quota). Its been 60 years since independence, should there not be a deadline when the quota system will be abolished, and help be provided to students only on basis of economic status.
