say no to caste based reservation

Reservation is a wider issue by just saying no to reservation and paying money instead is taking the problem too lightly. A blind only needs eyes not money. Many people require social respect rather than money. Take the issues pertaining to females. They constitute 50% of the total population but don't have representation to the extent of even 10% in many fields. Muslims constitute 14% of the population in india but their representation is less than 2% in many fields. There are many religion, many caste, many ethnic groups in india. Indian society is a complex society and just by paying money to deprived will be taking the problem much much simplified way. I am not in favour of reservation but there must be some solution acceptable to all for alround upliftment of each and every person socially as well as economically. I agree that reservation can't solve the problem and reservation should not be encouraged if it has intention of political gain, but those person like you who are really concerned for finding solution of reservation must think the ways for upliftment of down troden.

Reservations was neccessary to bringup the life style and knowledge of some categorized people. but now the conditions have changed . now everybody knows the value of education.still in some part of india it is neeeded. but this system could be stopped in other well developed sides of India.

i agree with you on certain points. there must not be a caste based reservation system. just giving money wont solve thier problem, they must be made accountable for the money given to them. but thats a very tough thing to do. our politicians will never abolish the caste based reservation n u know y. only judiciary can do this but again politicians wont let that happen. they will amend constitution for sure.

yes i agree with you bcoz if these caste based reservations continue then in course of time the general open category will be in minority!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes I do agree with you because I fell earlier people felt bad when they were told that they are from lower caste but now its reversed and thus people change their status and become backward class to get the reservations. Also when people like Amitabh Bachchan who bought a land reserved for Farmer by getting a farmer certificate from Govt of UP open corruption as everyone now what he is doing for so long and even though he goes down to become a farmer to acquire so I think the reservation should now be there only for poor but who now people like Amitji will get that certificate also....;-)

Nope, reservation shouldn't be done on caste basis. that will just divide the society more. It's not a good way to help people. It's just plain stupid. Instead they should do reservations on the basis of financial status of the student or his family. If poor financial condition then give seat or else he's on his own.

there shuld not be any reservation.what is the need for that in studies and in working place?the teacher who teaches is same for all and also the exam paper is same and the one who is evaluating is also same.where comes dicrimination?so there should not be any reservation based on caste.If everything has been reserved then what is the scope for the general category.if it continues in the near future there should be reservation for open category.if they are downtrodden it should be solved by economic reforms and not by reservation.

The whole problem is that even if we all become against the reservations, our political leaders for the sake of winning votes will not stop such practices.You are absolutely right that reservation is not the solution, I feel education should be free after that let the most competent person gets the post.

This whole business of reservation is a faulty way of looking at things. Like poverty can't be eliminated by charity upliftment of backward class is not possible by reservation. More over we spoil the quality of our knowledge standard by introducing quota. Suppose: I am a medical student who got admitted as general category student after securing the required marks. According to the present system of marking or evaluating I have met the quality. where as a student who secures lesser marks than the required mark can be considered weaker or less capable (I AM STRICTLY SAYING THIS IN RESPECT OF THE PRESENT SYSTEM OF EVALUATION). So we are compromising on quality. Please also note that the main problem for the backward class is not merit. its not that they are not meritious or they cant compete on a similar footing. They can. Only thing they lack is monetry resource. So they would be more benifited if the Central government start giving them financial aid. Or Pay the entire fees or sponsor each backward stuident who gets admitted for higher studies. In that way the state would help them better.

reservation based on caste must be avoided... it should be given based on financial position.. inefficient people are enjoying it a lot..

I agree with this discussion totally.Reservation issue has been brought by polticians just for filling their own pockets, and for increasing the vote bank.Also if politicians do care for the backward class people then reservation should have been for low income people and not based on cast.By implementing cast reservation politicians have divided people into two segments.Also as merit will not be considered the educational system will be facing a risk and educational system will be degrading.Indian economy will be in danger if such selfish politicians are present in our government.

yes,there should not be any caste based reservations in our world.

CAST SYSTEM SHOULD BE ABOLISHED FROM OUR SOCIETY ITS NOT RIGHT IT IS THE CRIME AGAINST HUMAN BEING.

so let me understand... in india, the govt. sets some people aside in a certain part of the city or country, like the native american people in the US, or the slums, excuse me, the City Housing Authority...? someone please post a comment so i can be clear... your discussion reminded me of visiting Mexico, where there are people that believe in their hearts that some Mexican citizens don't need a nice apartment, or a car, or a savings account, only an old apt., a lot of work, and a little food!!!!!!

I dont think reservation is a solution to uplift backward clases.. it has been observed that the benefits of reservation arre limited to those who are already doing well in life.. imagine a person who got reservation benefits 30 yrs ago.. he got in 12 based on quota then to engineering college and then to Indian Engineering services and finally in Govet enterprise and by them time his kid is readyu for 12 that is 18-20 years old.. he uses the reservation quote for him too.. his kid was not deprieved of anything in life . he got every thing and more than an average general category person gets.. yet he fill in the quota seat while the the one who is poor doesn't get it.. imagine this process repeating again and again limiting quota benefits to few,, i thnk quota benefit should be given just once and then quota certificate should be withdrawn from the entire family.. this can solve the problem

I'm the one who belongs to the so called "upper caste" but i definitely disagree with your point. Have you ever gone too far to witness these so called low caste where they suffer to meet the both the ends and no way in a position to send their children to the school??? for god's sake, still there are child labors in the country because of the poverty they are into. so you've got to give them the opportunities to come up and once they become the commonwealth people then we can talk about the no reservation campaign...

Hi I am Phanidhar.I feel that reservations should be based on the financial back ground but not based on the religion.As for nopw it is based on religion, many r changing their religion just for the sake of reservations and for funds they get from outside.

There is no place & should not be place for reservation in India. people like me suffer a lot from it. Just Because we are Brahmin.

i support u

Hi madam.I completely agree with ur premise.The irony is that we want to abolish caste system by highliying it?!!I have usually met people who consider it a privilege given to them (superiority complex) or are low on confidence and feel guilty for using this option (inferiority compex).Both of the above being exactly opposite to the actual intention.But giving money wont help(Mother Theresa's principle applied).We can take a leaf out of IIT's principle where a bridge course is given to the less competent and brought to the level of others.
