Solution worse than the problem
on Apr 17, 2008 11:27 PM

It is no surprise that the 27% obc reservation will be implemented within no time bcos the only hindrance, noncompliance by the supreme court, is over now. It was bound to happen as it was an unequal tug of war between the supreme court on one side and all the political parties with the ruling govt leading, on the other side. It establishes the proverbial might is right once more. May God save the non-obc poor people. By the way, some people argue that 27% for obc is still not enough as india's population constitute more than 27% obc people. I like to tell them that obc people are actually getting 77% reservation becos the open 50% is not at all reserved for the general. everyone can have a pie from that. An example will clarify the matter. Suppose there r 20 posts for a job, 10 reserved & 10 open and 100 applicants qualified in the interview. Say the firt 10 and the last 10 positions are obc candidates and the remaining 80 positions are general candidates. Now, the result will be, the first 10 posts will be occupied by obc by dint of merit and the remaining 10 posts will also be occupied by obc by virtue of reservation and the 80 general candidates will remain jobless despite securing 11th to 90th positions. Does the govt have any solution for them???   |   Report abuse

Dividing India on caste line
on Apr 11, 2008 01:38 AM

This judgement is nothing less than dividing our country on caste line. It is a shame on secularism. Does the suprem court or anybody else have the guts to divide muslims on backward, forward or anything else? Are all muslims equal? if not, then there must be bacward and forward or privileged and underprivileged. Can anyone dare utter the word of dividing them on that basis? When caste system are on the wane in our country and intercaste marriages are now pretty common phenomena,which was a strict no no a few decades back, chance is bright that hindus will get united in near future and it is daunting for the politicians. Thats why they are hell bent on dividing the society on caste line. If uplifting the underprivileged were the only motto, it could have been done in one thousand ways without using the caste. Suppression is a basic nature of all animals (including humans) and the stronger one tends to suppress the weaker one. How can this be eliminated by reservation. In the north east india, Biharis are being suppressed by assamese in assam, bengalis, assamese and other plain land peple are being suppressed by khasis in meghalaya, by nagas in nagaland, by mizos in mizoram and by manipuris in manipur and so on. Is there any reservation which can eliminate these problems? Even after this judgement, the reserved class will start suppressing the unreserved (and hence weaker). How can anyone stop this? So, it is nothing but a political gimmick in the election year. God help india

Blemish on secularism
on Apr 10, 2008 11:50 PM

This judgement is and will remain an ever glittering blemish on secularism. From now onwards, the word 'secular' should be detached from India and and it should be renamed a cste based backward country. It is abysmally ironic that though it is a secular country, here everything is done on the basis of caste and religion. It is a shame on us.   |   Report abuse
