Gujjars don't even know they're being played around!!! It's Marx's theory that within each class there's a sub class that dominates that class!!! So no matter how much upliftment comes to the gujjars or the other SCs they will remain to be suppressed, dominated by the superiors from their own class!!! In short the rich becomes the richer and the poor becomes poorer!!!!

There seems to be some logic in your line of thinking. I am reminded of the 'Creamy layer' issue when it was sought to separate the well-off layer of the backward classes from reservation, so the deserving sections would get the benefit. There was such a hullaballoo over this and mass agitations by the concerned castes against creamy layer. This makes it clear that economically well-to-do people of lower castes would want the free meal anyways - irrespective of whether the really impoverished live in poverty or not.
Thus the whole issue is - there are free meals up for grabs; come get it and eat it - never mind if your lower class brother lives in dire destitution or not. Ethics be damned.
