We have been reading a lot about the ongoing controversy about Indian government's proposed hike in the reservations for OBCs. With both the advocates and opponents of this policy engaging in rhetoric to prove their repective points, it is difficult to sift facts from make-believe. I am not against depriving someone of education or employment on the basis of caste, but I strongly object to India's reservation methodology. A better and more effective program/policy ought to be envisaged and based on it an affirmative action be taken to alleviate the misery of those living on the fringes of society. Our wily politicians have been using reservation as a tool to swell their vote-bank. This is what ought to be condemned.
Go through Karan Thapar's interview with Mr. P. Chidambaram Reservations have helped OBCs rise: Chidambaram. It's painful to see an intelligent person like him trying to defend government's wrong policy. When will India be freed from the clutches of the unscrupulous and sham politicians?
