I do not understand this policy of govt taking care of poor people. The policy of taking from the rich and giving to poor has proved to be total failure vis a vis Russia. China is progressing using commercial development and cheap labour. The only way to improve is by improving, infrastructure, basic education. Govt should only run primary schools and secondary schools. It should be a watchdog for universities etc where all should be equal. If an SC/ST guy needs reservations to get into a top institute like IIT which is not even into one of the top 100 in the world .. REF the week report. how can he compete with the global competition. We need to think globally and act locally to be a leader.with these lopsided policies of reservations, we are going to wards the african countries and not the west where we should look to.
