Their relatives, samaj helps to get job. I will quote one example. BSC Student is getting management trainee job if his influence is there. And BSC dalit student have to start from clerical job.

and where did you get these figures from?
No one community can have more intelligence than others. Brahmins are more likly to be literate (but not necessarily educated - there is a difference). However, that alone doesn't make them intelligent.
If there is one thing people can learn from brahmin's it is this - How even today in India, a supposedly secular and equality minded nation, punishes a class of people for the atrocities committed by their forefathers.
And the other lesson you can learn - In Indian democracy, if you have vote, you will get included in some reservation category.
Thrid lesson - If you belong to an upper class, just make sure you have between 20-50lakh rupees for your childrens education out of this country, as this country won't let you get a good education.

that way forward cast people like reddys,chowdharys are also in good positions.this percentage is more than brahmins percentage.glad to see brahmins achievement,but 80% of the same caste are struggling in villages who needs the attention of rulers,in some areas just leading a miserable life.due to the low number of population they can not influence the leaders,because they are not the deciding voters,these people need constitutional protection.but i can not agree with the 90%statistics,this is a way back 2decades back scenario

Not only that. The brahmins have successfully degraded lower caste people to such an extend all during thousands of years that the burden of brahmin superiority is still not letting the dalits to lift their head. This is what that has to be changed

By pushing the brahmin's head down?
Here is a thought. If someone is deprived of food, the right way to do it is to provide it to him by trying to get more food, not by grabbing the food in another person's plate.
You'll just create a new underclass this way.
If education was privatised and open investment is allowed, perhaps govt. can concentrate all its money on OBCs and othe socially needy persons. But, if there is absolutely not enough seats and 50% of inadequate supply of seats are reserved, it is a way of telling people, that i'll only feed a few people who'd vote for me. Others can go jump to a well.

Not because they are intellegent but because they are cunning and there is systemic bias and conspiracy by the brahmins who sit in DPC, interview board including UPSC to deny promotion and appointment to deserving candidates from under prievileged sections. UPSC interview for CSE is the biggest hoax. The marks obtained in interview often determines the rank of the candidates. It is seen some of the well networked candidates are given exceptionally high marks even though their marks in the written part is vey low. Further there is segreggation of the candidates as per their caste and accordingly the candidates are called for interview category-wise. Half an hour interview can not be an objective basis for judging a candidate. Let interview be held in camera.In fact whole procedure is so opaque. UPSC should bring down the total marks of PT to 100 from 300 immediately.
