Reservation in India

Reservation policy introduced by Dr. Ambedkar and his committee is being exploited by the politicians to gather votes. These politicians who have already amassed a lot of riches, are still not contented because of their greed for the position. The time by when the reservation for the SC/ST have to be withdrawn is over, years back. The reservation mentioned was only for the SC/ST. The condition is made even worse by introduction of more reservation. Hereafter, it is not fair to extend the reservation to these communities. Many students who belong to communities enjoying reservation, have secured top ranks in various entrance examinations. These students have spoilt the chance of several students who have their only hope in open competition seats. If the government is following the reservation policy, it has to remember that it should terminate soon and it is not a permanent policy. If it does not terminate soon, India will no longer be a secular state.

Extension period cannot be longer the prescribed original term. This is what it is heading towards. If the prescribed term is 50 years, the time when all the 100% seats fall under Open competition will only be 2047!! Atleast they have to stop issuing community certificates by 2030.

Tamil Nadu, the state to which I belong to is the worst affected. Why such a reservation policy exists is unknown. Roughly,
Open Competition - 34%
BC - 31%
MBC - 21%
SC - 13%
ST - 1%

Out of the 34% open competition seats, hardly 10% are taken by the forward community students. See The Hindu tabulation of the 2005 medical admissions in Tamilnadu. This will scare all the forward community people and will really make them run out of this country. There will be a day when 0% of the seats are taken by the forward community students. This is not the day when they will be outperformed by the reservation people but it is the day when they will all hate India and flee out of India!!
