Reservations should be abolished
by messengerfromHell on Apr 11, 2008 05:52 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

I had been from a poor background but from General category .I studied with candles as my dad could not afford to pay the elictric bills and we used to have always fuse being removed I struggled day and night and got 300 th rank in engineering entrance but .was not eligible for the computer science engineering in top college .But a TRIBal who had a rank of 30000 got the seat there ...

I would have been happy if this TRIBE was really from a Poor background . But this TRIBals dad owns 5 petrol pumps in bangalore ....

It is high time Govn opens their closed eyes and see who should be really benefitted.

Are you telling the truth? May we know which state's entrance test did you take? I'm only asking because I'm finding it impossible to think that you didn't get a seat atleast in the 2nd or 3rd top ranked college in atleast an allied branch of the main branch of your interest. If what you're saying is true, then.. just plod on patiently friend.. pray to Lord Ganesha daily, and build yourself into a fighter. Pay day will come, never give up!

These reservations will whip up the cream of general merit students - who can progress in such mind numbing competition are winners for life. Keep going!

Its ok dude, leave it. Even I wrote my entrance test 8 years ago. I know how it feels, getting a very good rank but not getting the seat other incompetent and worse, filthy rich OBC people so easily grab. Move on and progress through other means and pray to Lord Ganesha, that's all we can do.
