Quota
by utpal mukherji on Apr 10, 2008 05:19 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

My son studies in class ix th std. He has a desire to get admission in IIT. Till date I have taught him we are all Indians and are equal. Toady I have to tell him that we are first upper caste & others are OBC,SC & ST who have first preference to get admission & all Indians are not equal.

I have to teach him we are 2nd class citizens in our own motherland.

Very true! This new verdict of SC made India the 'Top Racist' country in the world. And we, belonging to the so-called 'upper cast' of the society, are now the victims of this naked racism. Being an IIT alumnus I am now worried about the future of the institute, and feel sorry for those innocent souls (like your son) who aspire to become an IITan one day. Nowhere in the world can one find such wonderful paradigm of compromising with the quality! Churchill's saying proved correct -- the power has indeed gone to the hands of the rascals! And we'll have to pay for it now....

How can we be all equal if not provided equal standard of education?
