Time to rethink
by ansuk virendra jain on Apr 23, 2007 04:28 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is high time to rethink about the policy of reservation. The reservation should be based on the basis of one's economic parameters and on the basis of one's caste.

Economic parameters could be " do you own a house, how many earning members are there in one family and how many dependent, their education status etc.

We are ready to support the downtrodden but not as per the current structure.

Also there needs to be an end to reservation. We can support them for 5 yrs, 10 yrs, 20 yrs, 50 yrs , 100 yrs, there need to be an end to it which should be specifically defined. The law cannot expect us to support the downtrodden endlessly.

Finally if one has to improve his standard of living then he alone can do it.


The above judgement of SC is a welcome judgement

The real downtrodden can be supported. But not the so called down trodden and the rich. An OBC with a 100 acre farm land and a few crores of money in his account and a labourer in his farm can not be equal in reservation.

The policy of reservation should define its achievement and when they see the end to this reservation. If a person is benefited by reservation he should be deserved. Only then the next man in queue becomes eligible.
