India is democracy.... and NOT 'meritocracy' like Singapore.

Hence it is imperative to maintain 'cultural' aka 'caste' diversity in all temples in India.

Government of India should implement 'reservations' in all Indian temples as per the 'caste' census in India.

1. 52% of all temple staff including Pujaris should be from OBC communities.
2. 29% temple staff including Pujaris should be from Dalits and Tribals.
3. Remaining all temple staff including Pujaris should be from other castes.

But India is also a secular country unlike Pakistan & muslime countries. There should be no differentiation of people based on castes.All have equal rights and all must get equal oppurtunity. So do'nt get confused.Else they should have divided the country based on castes at the time of independence. Why the hell do you need other caste people only to supress them?
