do u support the reservation system in india?

US has, Canada has, Australia has, New Zealand has...there are many. We need quota to bring up to certain level even the undeveloped section of our society. It's not only political game though that is involved. If you see some villages in Maharashtra, Orissa, Bihar, UP, Jharkhand and so on you cannot say quota is unnecessary. People just don't have even food to eat in many of our villages. The rich are writing is newspaper, internet, magazines etc. saying that quota is bad. Many poor people have never seen even these things. You can write and read and speak English, and you have access to internet...don't these people deserve food to eat? forget about education. Under some NGOs I have gone to villages and I saw their pathetic situation. India will not shine until we bring these people as well to certain level. With regards, headhunter525

I don't think this is the biggest hurdle for India's growth. In any country if only one section of the citizens are developed and few others are left behind, or few are taken ahead and one left behind, then the one left behind will create lot of problem. There can be civil war as well or kind of breakdown that France experienced sometime back. It is necessary to have quota system of certain kind. To remove entire quota system at one go will damage India and so many lives. Remember only around 76% are literate. If the rich are going abroad for not getting admission in India where will our poor go? Underground...insurgency...militants...and they will kill your family...my family. We need reservation based on economic condition of individual family, not based on caste. That is what we need to be fighting for. Then years later we can erase quota system. As long as there is quota system based on caste India will always have quota system because caste will never vanish, only their economic condition and status can be changed.

I think it is very very important to have quota system. Yet I think it should be based on the economy of an individual family, and not on caste. There are lot of people who are not getting two meals a day, and lot who are having no extra clothes or roof above their head. Should we care for them? Definitely. And to care for them the rich may have to give up something. Not everything, but cut down on expenditures, living standard and so on. I sincerely believe people who argue against quota system have not really seen the real India. They have been raised in cities and they never seen the bigger part of India. This may sound offensive, but more often than not this is true.
