Is reservation is fair deal with laborious & intelligent students?

No way. Politicians can go to any extent to get a few extra votes. In the process, they are destyoying the society and the merit. What is surprising is that a person who already has his legs in grave (Arjun Singh) and is not even able to walk properly, is still thinking about getting more and more votes.

There cannot be any final result for that as this had continued for so long and will continue as it is because people who is protesting forget that in its own stead, nothing is bad or good. It is the way it is used, implemented and taken up that makes it bad or good. In India reservation was and is used to please some people and get quick votes, be it SC&ST provisions in constitution which was originally meant for 15 years or implementation of Mandal commission after its lying in cold storage for years. There are many aspects of reservation. It is fact there are some strata of society who need support to rise from their current status of poverty or backwardness. Not all of us who have not seen deprived life know they really know what a backward person faces in her/his life.\nHowever there is opposition for reservation because the benefit of it is are not going to actual people rather they are taken up by some people of these society who are already in upper class whereas actual needy people are still at the same place. No one will object if a really needy get the benefit, Most of people are furious since it is someone who is not needy who is reaping benefit. There are many arguments in this reservation issue:\n1. Instead of caste basis, give it on economic basis: As far as making economic condition as criteria is concerned, there is always good and bad of all thoughts. Good about this will be that this should be the correct way to decide for giving help however there are too many lacunas in this as getting certificate for economic background is very easy to get since no one file income tax return and there is no proof of incomes for people other than salaried people so what will happen ultimately is again people who do not deserve the benefit will get it and needy will remain eluded with this.\n2. Incompetent people in jobs: I agree that when it comes to job then what we need are competent people in jobs to provide proper service and let our country grow. It is wrong to say the people who need help to rise first time are not competent but what is required is that we bring them up and educate and train them so that they are competent enough to take up the challenges. \n3. Would you like a doctor coming through quota to operate on you who does not how to use scalpel: Now if we talk about getting a doctor without enough skills. This is often repeated example but what we fail to understand that a person cannot be a doctor just by getting admission in medical college. S/he became doctor after passing out from the college. If we say that college examination system is such that they will pass person without knowledge then problem does not lie in reservation in admission but in examination system which required to be looked into. Having said that if education system is not good and it will allow person without skill to get the degree then what is guarantee that a person who has come by other route let us by paying higher fees or something and for that matter what is guarantee that a person who have scored 90+ marks is good in medical study. So then we are running risk of many doctors without skills operating on us. So this argument that if the person has come with reservation will be not competent doctor is not correct. If a person has passed MBBS (s/he can be anyone reserve one or other) and do not know how to use scalpel and then we should hung all the teachers who have taught them, people who have set the papers  and all the examiners who has taken their practical exams and checker who checked their examination papers.\n4. What about other type of reservations: why there so much hue and cry about backward class reservations, do everyone really want selection of students on merit basis? if yes, then why there is not no one appear to oppose the other kind of quota called as management quota or nri quota. if all the protest is based on the concept of merit, will the protestant also oppose the private medical and engineering college; g

Ridiculous!!!!!\nHe n UPA govt, seems to play vote bank politics.\nI tel u no party is gonna oppose this rule as they fear to loose SC/ST votes.\nThey take votes of General Category 4 granted.So,all Open Category people must get united to oppose this act of dividing our society.\nIt threatens country's integrity.\nIITs n IIMs r pride,brands of India, produce best talent n there is no place 4 any criteria other than merit.\nTo enhance the status of backward class people we should spend large money n time at grass root levels like primary schools,secondary schools n make them able 2 compete 4 IITs n IIMs because \nAs Abraham Lincoln said :\n"Democracy ensures equal opportunities not equal enviornments"

India is one of the countries which has low labour cost. Therefore, i think it will be better than normal indian university salaries.

highle debated and disussed..\n\nthe answer remains that reservation has hardly helped and changed the way things are happening. reason.. simple. the way it is applied indiscriminately at present.\n\nhere lies the solution ; -\n\nreservation as such should not completely be removed. i agree with you. the basis should be monetary as i have stated in one of my earlier answers on the same topic.\n50% is not required considering the fact that so many seats remain vacant. \nit should be ensured that once a person from the backward class gets reservation his following generations should not be allowed to avail this opportunity because that is gross injustice. and once in office he should not be given the privilege of early promotion which is extremely unfair. and also people from the backward section earning decent money should not be given reservation (unlike one of my friends who is an sc and is in iit.. he didn't deserve reservation beacuse.his parents annual income was 7 lakhs.. imagine!!)\n\nthere are olny two sections rich and poor. extend the reservation to the poor.\n\nand also reservation at each and every step will handicap the person mentally and he will never put the best effort into his work beacuse it will be at the back of his mind that he has an advantage over others..

No. U shouldnot classify the casts of students. POOR should be given some reservations and that should also be reduced in 5 years time to nil. If reservations to be made compulsory, then it should be the Parliament First, then Ministers.

I would not say main cause but yes a fundamental cause in making people go abroad where there is no bias based on caste. More reason for the brain drain is because of the people themselves. More than the situations people want to earn more, live a lavish lifestyle, get away from the government and other pathetic situations. Reservation no doubt is a big worrying factor, and I hope that with the strong stand of today's student it gets eradicated soon. But it depends on the political will of the system more than the students. But i do hope the students and future of this country hang on over here and do some betterment for this country rather than going abroad.

It is probably looking for students that know the difference between "coarses" and "courses".  Attention to detail is important when presenting one's self to premier universities.

Oh GREAT!!!!!!!.  I welcome this reservation.  S.T,  S.C &  B.Cs are suffering since many many years without proper chance in Indian Cricket Team.  Let their people get share in Indian Cricket Team.  Let them enjoy the Cricket and let them earn Cricket money.  \n\nEven the Cricket match tickets should be sold on reservation basis.

I'm a mature student and I agree with you. Many of the students I know are incredibly inteligent, but simply have no common sense, at all.

It is the scheduled castes, tribes, backward communities  that have benefited the most from this segregation. When Ambedkar envisaged reservation, he thought that within 40 years of Independence, all the castes would be assimilated and the Hindus will have one homogeneous caste.\n\nToday to the SC, ST, BC have been added minorities who have reservations in every aspect of life, right from preference in schools, to jobs, to everything in life.\n\nIt is said that one man cannot pay for the sin/s of another. The SC, etc say that my forefathers have looted, cheated, commit ed atrocities on them and I should pay for this by giving them various concessions. I have checked up my family history over three generations, I have not come across any case of any atrocity by my forefathers. So I am being paid for crimes that my ancestors never committed, just because appeasement of these segments will win votes for the politicians and assure them another six years in power.\n\nIronical, isn't it Ambedkar started the reservation policy to assimilate his people, all ta-ht it has ended up doing is increased awareness in segregation and chaos in the country!\n\nst

the protests are completely justified as the politicians have no right to toy around with the future of the country. this has been said time and again- this is a kill of merit. \n\nhowever i would say that reservations should be there but the way it is being implemented currently is wrong. reservations in educational institutions and then in jobs doesn't make sense. also while giving reservation the monetary status of the individual should be kept in mind and it should be insured that only the poor and down trodden take advantage of reservation. \n\nthe current system doesn't pay attention to these things and is indiscriminately giving reservation to all backward classes. (even rich people, a friend of mine who is currently in iit is SC- his parents annual income is 7 lakhs.) \n\ndoctors have full right to protest because in their field the competition is very fierce. their actions are completely justified. more ever sudden increase in reservation will also bring down the quality of the institution.

Yes, in most cases.  Students know what is expected of them, and are able to complete the assignment to those guidelines.
