The author has a very unidimentional view about the issue. I think the editors at rediff should spend time reading such article before posting them on the main page.
Powerful statements which hint at "leaving behind" thousands of years of injustice sound immature and very "blog-ish". The author definitely does not merit the status of a guest columnist.
There is no doubt that the current reservation policy has serious flaws - but till a better solution is found, there is no other way out.
Hope better sense prevails at rediff - i sincerely hope that I don't find such pathetic articles on the main pages of rediff.
