The way world is going, information and education would be the decisive factors for success. Rather than reservation everywhere, Dalits should demand for special education initiatives to make themseleves competitive in the fast changing world. Reservations can't give them support forever. Compulsary reservation in private sector??? Intel/IBM/Pfizer would move thier centers to China etc. They won't be impacted, India will pay for it. Therefore, my friends wake up before its too late. Lets make ourseleves competitive and work side by side to make india proud.

Losers are people who ask for reservation. If one is so bothered about improving dalit conditions let us see the dalit movement start and help the farmer commiting suicide in vidharba. Let us see them protest to help the dalit child working as labor in some corner of the country get educated. What are those so called elite educated dalits doing asking for reservation for creamy layer in higher education when the dalit student's father is a general manager. Why is he so much unfortunate than the son of a clerk who unfortunately does not have a dalit certificate to make into a university? Concerntrate on improving at the grass root level instead of playing vote bank politics. Realize burning a train or vandalizing a statue does not improve the life of anyone. Pray tell me why Mr. Paswan's son (a Dalit as he would refer himself to)get it easy into a university than a Farmer's son also a dalit who is say 50 rank's below him? well Mr. Paswan's son has all the benefits better than most of the so called forward community but he wants reservation. Are you helping the dalit community? NO you are motivating Mr.Paswan Jr. to live an easy life coz he goes to university real easy.

What is education for 4000 Years. There was no education like this until the Britishers came. It was just the Gurukul system where religious hymns were taught. No other caste other than the Brahmins were prepared to do religious activities.
Secondly, the so called OBCs, business community had a great time. They did business and were at the higher end.
Dalits suffered. But do not blame only on Brahmins. In fact, it was the BCs who plundered their honour, burnt their homes etc. The whole society should take the blame.
But, the Government has ignored the Dalits. They kept them under educated just to get their votes. Why is it there are no dalit students in primary schools. When you can not read alphabets, what is the use of reserving in IIMs and IITs?
