PKL. May 30,Tuesday, 2006. This endless recycling of the Reservation saga from the beginning of 20th Century to the period of Bindheshwari Prasad Mandal and V.P.Singh 27% reservartions for other Backwards had mired Indian educated families in frustration bordering on desperation leading some to self-immolations. The Creamy Layers of the Backwards have been asked to be denied this benfit by the apex court.Arjun Singh as wily politician has started this controversy ,now, that embarrasses all parties, none can oppose this concession as sure ticket for votes to elections , and yet are perplexed by the agitating students who are increasingly ferocious, may end up once again in gory self-immolations! Farcical. we should commit ourselves to basic education and gainful skilled training for rural skilled employment and self-employment to all, and I mean it literally all the elite prejudice for being salt ofthe earth /creamy layers just ignored.
