Creamy Layer

This must be removed from SC/ST also so as to speed up the social justice, today they are eating all the seats from the poor SC/ST needy.Needy SC/ST are therefore are in a very bad shape.

there is still no creamy layer amongst SC/ST. I wish they have it soon. I think the creamy layer must have reservations in SC/ST as they act as role models for rest of the community.

The case for OBCs are different - many OBC castes are actually forward castes !! And unlike SC/ST - OBCs have never faced untouchability and social stigma which is still very very strong.

I know around me about 50 SC/ST in different positions in GOI, they all are creamy layers-SWARN bow before them. whereas I find many poor untouchables-still untouchables.So long we categorise the SC/ST as a vote bank politics, the purpose of social equality will not be served for another 100 years,
