The piece written on OBC reservation is enlightening. Every one, especially the SC/ST/OBC, should read it and try to introspect whether availing reservation in IITs and other schools of learning, is moral and healthy. I feel that those who legislate to provide reservation in educational institutes and services, should in fact legislate to provide equal opportunities to every underprileged person upto high school by giving scholarships, seats in good government and public schools. Even cost of extra coaching for preparing for entrance examinations, should be provided for such persons. Once high school education is complete, there should be equal opportuniities for every one whether he/she is SC/ST or OBC or general category. Only excellence should be the means for getting a seat in higher schools of learning. Only this way felings of inferiority and backwardness in higher schools of learning can be overcome. Do not make this special class to depend on the crutches of reservation and live in ignonimy in later life for having come through reservation.
