Will you support anyone or anything just for the sake of reservations ?
Tell me honestly, have you really been opressed that you need the reservation bhik ? Maybe your great grandfather was. If your father killed someone, will you be put on trial instead ?
Even if you get reserved seat, how will you compete internationally once you become an engineer or MBA ? If you go to USA/Europe, will you be competant ?
If your answer is no, it means that reservation is of no use. It has not enabled you to excell. Infact you will be always treated as backward.
If your answer is yes, then you dont need reservations since your are competant to earn your seat on merit. It means your grandfather's opression by the so-called upper caste has not affected your upbringing.
The point is whether your answer is yes or no, you dont need reservation to succeed. If you are educated, you should encourage other OBCs and guide them. Maybe provide financial support for them so they can compete against anyone. Please dont make bhikari out of someone who is capable of competing on merit. Remember whenever you give bhik to a bhikari, you are doing him a dis-service. You are ensuring that he will always be a beggar. This would be the biggest sin you will do. Give him education and guidance instead.
I honestly do not believe in any caste system and everyone is born equal. Everyone should get equal opportunity to live a respectable life. Those who suppress others based on caste should be punished by law. Those who misuse reservation should be punished aswell.

Hello Milind Sawant, You may not believe in caste sytem; but thats the ground truth in India. So called Hindu religion caste system is given the right for the brahmins to rule OBC & SC/ST generations of centuries. You accept the ground truth 1st; then we can discuss.

Don't beat the "Brahmins exploit" shit drum for ever, dude. The so called OBCs, like Vokkaligas, Kammas and even the Yadavs, have done horrendous things to the SC/ST in the past. All that has been conveniently put under the rug and the only villains in the piece now are "Brahmins" Shame on you. How long will you repeat the crap? Very soon India will be cleansed of Brahmins, whom will you blame then?

Isn%u2019t it discrimination if people are given reservation at such astounding proportions like in Tamil Naidu. Admission to elite institutions should be purely merit based, a person using his/her caste credential can still get into basic education which certainly can get them job opportunities and if they have what it takes to get into elite institutions they can try. Sadly reservation is not for lower caste people, its like religion which is misused by overtly corrupt politician who come up with gimmicks one superseding another only to get few votes.

Ramachandran or whoever you are: India was ruled by british for 500 years, before that it was ruled by Mughals for 700 years. I do not recall Brahmins ruling India ever. Get your facts straight and do not become a victim of the congress/communist controlled media. Get some history lessons.
