Dear Yogesh,Bharat and Dinesh, It is very nice to see your views on a serious issue.What I had told about conversion was also fact and was in the mind of our leader at time of declaration of reservation some 60 years back.Now You all are serious about descrimination of SC by Brahmin Upper Caste or By muslims too before independence.I say my religion do not permit any difference in the name of caste colour or creed.I do not condemn any religion,in fact it is we people who do misinterprettaion of religion as per our need.I have my neighbour a Brahmin uncle and aunti take care of me much more than my family.I myself is a victim of govt. reseravation policy.But I am supporter of reservation because a big community is so far from justice from equality.A community which has been expoloited by upper caste for hundred of years must come in main stream.If they are in race they must be on the starting point.If they are not on starting point how will they competete the race? Yogesh you live in USA,You are not well aware about the ground reality about the position in villages here,just today news thakur upper caste beat the groom and its relative for not saluting the thakur first(Dainik jagran).Its every day bussiness here.You are in USA i would like to give you an example after the terrorist attack on USA there was a wave against Muslim and one sikh was killed by a person,that person was latter given death penalty,you see this was an eaample of racial descrimination and quick action of USA govt and court,this is how justice established .Unfortunatily this do not exist in our country.I myself have sen expolition of SC by my Muslim brothers.I am agreed with you about social reform but who will come forward our leaders who are fighting in the name of caste.Can you give me a single name of leader who is not doing caste politics.

Dear Zaheen I fully agree with your thoughts, that is what modren India need for its future. Every where in the world, Common man unites only when too much of injustice and cruelty has gone down the history lane. But let us look it with this view >> Business man need to make profit, he is enterprenuer. It is Politician who needs to make sure that Bussiness man leaves enough on the table for Common man.
Similarly Police can be made accountable only by the politicians. If a strong message comes from TOP than no policeman will allow helpless downtroden to be exploited. Our politicians are failing intheir duty, and we need to make our community aware of this on a continuous basis. Otherwise injustice of 1000 years will continue for another 1000 year.
