dear,
you are wrong in your statement that mayawati has shown his capability and all goondas are in jail and do work for poor people as other parties never do.

Dear Samunder,
In Tamil Nadu, the Dravidian parties, riding high on 'anti-brahmin', anti-Hindi, pro-tamil campaign, captured the imagination of the vulnarable voters in the 1960s, and captured power from Congress. Since then Congress couldnot get back to power. It is either DMK or AIADMK in T.Nadu, with a cluster of smaller parties supporting them.

Brahmins,in Tamil Nadu, do not get any protection from the ruling Govts repeatedly, be it in education, employment, or in anyother walks of life, however meritories they may be. It is the State which has spearheaded the reservation campaign to start with. Brahmins, who have given their traditional lands on leasehold basis to others for cultivation, were given a raw deal. The cultivators either dont give anything at all, or give them pea-nuts, as all laws are supportive to them. The poor Brahmins even are unable to sell their lands, as the cultivators are asking at a throw away price! In desperation, the Brahmins, have more or less vacated Tamil Nadu to other places, like Bombay, Delhi, and to the US. You will find Tamil Brahmins happily settled in Mumbai (Chembur for example, Karolbagh, Janakpuri in Delhi). From my own family many qualified people have gone and settled down in the US. They are doing extremely well in Science, Software, Space Research, Engineering sectors in the US. They are enjoying better treatment and quality of life in these States, and also in the US. Tamil Nadu's loss is the gain for others. You will recall once upon a time T.Nadu use to give more number of IAS Officers to the country, and today you can see what is the reality. You go to any Govt Office, unless you make payment to the Red & Black border dhoties wearing Clerk, it is very difficult to get your things done. This is the result of systematic annihiliation of Brahmins in the State. Huge temples in Tamil Nadu have lot of movable and immovable properties. The Dravidian parties have changed laws in support of those people who cultivate/enjoy these properties, with the result they don't give anything at all in return to these temples. The result is even temples with lot of properties/lands, etc struggle to maintain themselves. To add to the insult, party people have been appointed to the Temple Management Committee. These people, instead of managing the temples as a sacred one, keeping them in good shape, preserving these centuries old temples so that people can get solace from God, etc. are using them as a source of income for them, and their supporters and parties.

The Brahmins should thank the Dravidian parties
to drive them away from T.Nadu, so that they are now having a better quality of life elsewhere.

With best wishes,
V.Srinivasan.

and they want reservation in higher studies...why...?OBC/SC/ST get aid/reservation etc to do their graduation...fine...they are provided with all the opportunities to compete meritoriously to get into higher studies...why do they need reservation agian...

why blame students who go to US/UK to pursue higher studies/research...afterall we discriminate the talented ones in the name of reservation...also we make reservation in employment too...so they settle for well paid reservation free jobs abroad...
