Reservations ...To a large extent, I agree with you. Reservations should be given to people who really are backward, mainly in economic terms. Instead of a reservation system based solely on caste terms, there can be a new system which takes into account not only the caste but also the income and economic history of the family the student is coming from. <BR/><BR/>This is what is happening in the case of OBCs in the civil services examination atleast, in which if you fall into the <A HREF="http://ncbc.nic.in/html/creamylayer.htm" REL="nofollow">creamy layer</A> as defined by the NCBC, you are not eligible for reservation and you are required to apply under "General Category". I'm an OBC and this is exactly what I did and I feel good about it. Heh, I dont need any reservation. :p<BR/><BR/>Now, my question is why isnt the same system implemented in the case of SCs and STs?<BR/><BR/>Btw, I dont think increasing the reservation quota to 49% in the IIMs and the IITs will affect the quality of these institutes. Sure, their quality may be affected by the kind of students they admit but if the quality of students becomes the whole criteria, then you're stripping away the competitiveness of the faculties and the facilities of these institutes. If they're really good, they'll still produce quality graduates <B>and</B> the nature of the admission process to these institutes is so competitive that you still have to be pretty good to qualify even for reservation.<BR/><BR/>The question, therefore, is not of quality but of fairness. A lot of forward caste people are complaining and apparently there is truth in their reasoning that the lower castes will gain at their expense. But you must realize that by increasing the reservation to the lower castes, they didnt shut the door entirely to you. You can still qualify... only that the competition will be 25% tougher. Then again, if you're really good, you'll get through - same thing for the OBCs who are going to get reservation.<BR/><BR/>Some people are even worried about India!<BR/><BR/>This argument of mine doesnt not, however, mean that I support this hike in reservation. I'm opposed to the very system we have in place currently. I'm only saying its effect will not be as bad as is being portrayed. I'm not an enemy of affirmative action too. Instead, I feel we need an entirely new reservation system which will be much more practical and one which actually will do its job.<BR/><BR/>Phew, you know what... this comment has become as big as a post and therefore, it'll become a full post in my blog. :pChaitanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05191432296325765105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18805709.post-1144588821186120642006-04-09T06:20:00.000-07:002006-04-09T06:20:00.000-07:00LETS ALL BURN THESE UNIVS.
