All of SC/ST/OBC and forward caste like brahmins are losers. Here is why: (1)For SC/ST their share of pie has gotten smaller. Now they will have to compete with OBCs. And it is the OBCs that oppress dalits not brahmins. Mayawati raised the same point during elections. OBCs include bhumihars, yadavs and Jats they oppress dalits more as these people hold real power in villages not the temple priest. (2) Forward caste are now openly dicriminated against. There is no reason for them to love India anymore. They should start looking to move to countries like US/Canada. (3) OBCs just got branded as backwards. I was just talking to recruiter here in US who recruits from IITs/IIMs. He told me point blank, more reservation means his job of recruitment becomes easy. For ex, earlier he had to interview tons of people in IITs and IIMs, now he says he just has to pick from top 50%. For the rest of the needs they would go to second tier schools. Because that is where the "next best" who could not make it IIT/IIM went. He said point blank, IIT/IIM teach from same books as any other college. The difference in students is the difficult entrance. Because we know someone clearing that without any reservation is good by default. We hire from IIT/IIMs just for same reason, otherwise even a Jaunpur MBA has same syllabus and curriculum and books. So OBCs still won't be hired. No need to worry as talent gets discovered anyhow.

No doubt, it is a bad news for majority. But dont mind dude, the reasoning given by u looks pretty immature .. the opinion given by u looks pretty much similar to those hold by aspirant of a premier institutes. If u see practically, almost none of the recruiter gives a huge weightage to how u got ur admit in the insti. ... all they look is how u performed in their test and how u were performing during the course. I myself am from a premier institues and have my colleagues from almost all of the top institutes of the country. But nobody has ever encountered any such situation in their respective colleges where somebody was rejected or not shortlisted bcoz he/she got admit from category. If somebody has performed good while studying in the institute, he is definitely preferred for recruitment over somebody who performed bad during the course but was one of the top ranker in the entrance test. I accept that a performer in the entrance test will most probably be a performer in class as well .. but it is not true in all cases. Taking a batch of a good institute which is already following this quota system, you will find maximum good performers from general category but the no. of cadidates from reserved category who are performing equally good is not small to be ignored too. The person who told u that he'll now recruit only from 50% of the ppl from premier institues, cannot be a real decsion maker in recruitment ... bcoz if he would be he would never say that .. it can b

it can be nothing but his personal opinion abt what he want to do in such situation. Have u ever seen any recruiter coming to a camus and picking up only genaral category and ignoring reserved category outrightly. No they do not because they have their own tests which will filter ppl once again .. and if a reserved category candidate is able to perform better than a general category guy, recruiter has full right to prefer that candidate only as he performed better in a test which is customized to the recruiter's requirement while the another one performed better in a general test(whose significance cannot be denied but is definitely given a second place bcoz of not being customized to the employer)
So no need to be complacent .. it is indeed a setback to all aspirants as there is substantial stuff to lose.
