What will happen to a country, where the candidate scoring 6 % marks in the qualifying examination is becoming teacher, beating 66 % and running all the students, going to study under him/her? Qualifying marks for an entrance test is less than half for some as compared to others. Students scoring zero, getting admission in professional colleges. That means just sit in the exam and the rest would be taken care of. Regardless of the income of the family in some cases, special advantages are given to the special section of people tagged as “backward” by the Indian government on the basis of caste. Lower School / College fees, which is added into the fees of other students to balance out. Reserving seats and taking the admission of student having lower marks, just for the sake of filling quota. They are clutches to perfectly abled people, making them dependent on something they don’t need. Is this system really doing what it was meant to be, or is this have taken the place as a drug to which people are now addicted to? Reserved Word Itself means compromise on quality when it is applied to the fields where only the best should be getting the chance. The Definition of backward is mixed with caste, is it necessary that a person from backward caste is poor and depressed in society and is it really worth to sacrifice the talent for making that person a part of such a facility that he will not be able to contribute into, leaving the ones who would have been able to. Backward is a person living in rural areas compared to the one living in urban, a landless labour as compared to landed peasantry, an unskilled labour to skilled labour, person with no capital to one having commanding sufficient capital, a person who believes in magic superstition and fate as compared to one who belief in science and understanding. An illiterate as compared to a literate person. In any of the above comparisons it can’t be said that the person who is backward is from upper-caste or lower. Age, Percentage, chances, and many other relaxations are foolish and would not seem realistic for someone who is not used to it. What will someone expect from a lifeguard who doesn’t know how to swim, and intelligence officer who just barely passed the IQ test, a doctor appointed because there were seats left of the quota? How safe would you feel travelling over a bridge made by an unskilled engineer? The Reservation system is being used as a revenge system, as well as a strategy of collecting votes. Revenge for the deeds this generation hasn’t done. Imagine Reservation in Defence and Sports. Admitting those of lower capability just for the sake of policies, crafting a future filled of defeats and failures. A law that prevents casteism is already in place; reservation won’t do any good, Stop this vote bank politics, and be free of cast!! Srinidhi Singh Manager, India against Reservation
