Are all Indian Citizens equal?
by Ranjith R on Apr 10, 2008 02:19 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

We just moved back a hundred years by constitutionally recognizing that all indians are not equal and that belonging to a particular caste is an advantage. Only thing is earlier brahmins we powerful, this time the BCs, SCs and STs are powerful.

Why is no party talking about reservation on economic lines? dont we have some data to prove who is rich and who is poor?

Reservation based on economic condition will fail in toto. It is a trick by brahmins to ask for reservation based on financial status.

I have seen my neighbour who was upper class person, having income of more than 5 lakh, 3 tempo, 1 truck business with govt. job had obtained ORANGE COLOUR RATIONING CARD which is for low level income group people. Govt.people do not check in details, or give and take policy.

Please advise, how many businessman shows real income to govt., how much they bribe. How much higher post people take bribe. Are they all SC/ST. Who will show real income.
Even General people manage to get FAKE certificate and get job. After some years after finding fault and getting notice from govt/public sector company, they request that I have a family, children and all that and request not to terminate.
