Reservation Policy/Politics in India : It hurts

By Aditya Gupta

Reservation Policy in India needs to be rectified or modified on urgent basis. Reservation policy in India is on the basis of caste rather than financial basis.

It is assumed that SC/ST/OBCs are unable to receive good quality education and enjoy other facilities due to scarce financial condition and hence enjoy around 50% reservation quota in education, jobs etc. In addition to that, they get a handsome rebate in their fees, bills etc.

I am not against any caste, in turn I rate every human being equally. My point is that a poor "General" category candidate is as poor as a poor "SC/ST/OBCs" category candidate, but he/she doesn't enjoy any reservation benefit. Why ??

Also in an entrance exam (whether for education or jobs), over 80% candidates belong to "General" category and rest are from reserve category. But due to our reservation policy, both of them enjoy equal 50% share in seats/final selection. Now is it fair that 80% "General" candidates and 20% "Reserve" candidates share equal percentage of seats ??

Ideally there should be no reservation, for me reservation stands for biasing, let the best man get the job. Ok, I agree with the point of providing assistance to the poor candidates but then it must be equal for all the poor candidates rather than based on caste.

I think some of the politicians are confused and they play reservation cards to build their vote bank etc rather than to eradicate the real problem i.e. to provide quality life to all. Reservation policy should be based on financial condition rather than caste. Every poor candidate must enjoy the benefit and ratio of reservation should be in accordance with the percentage of applicants.

I hope somebody responsible person may read this blog and try to understand my point of view and take this communication further to next level of fruitful discussion.
