in indian context do you feel necessity of reservations in the jos and educational institutions on the ground?

this reservation thing is wrong it is ruining our country.\nreseravation if necessary should be allowed at schooling level of education.\n If govt wants to give reservation  then it should give to those who r financially weak.This whole resrvation drama is pure votebank politics and is very dangerous for the future\nof INDIA.\nIn my opinion it is high time to correct our selves and eliminate this reservation system step by step this v can do by applying reservation plans as five year policies and work hard to remove any sort of differences created by politicians or anyone elseby punishing  them in hardest possible ways as per the law.

Yes actually, in this very country. There are very few instances of it, but the fed. government has set up reservation-like areas for Practioners Of Old Principles And Religions, or P.O.O.P.A.R. You typically find these areas in sparsely habited or states that nobody wants to be in, such as Kansas, Nebraska and northern Nevada.

The caste system is a severe stumbling block for me accepting India's culture.  I find it offensive, yet it seems that quite a few people in India take it so seriously that it has political currency, so reservations based on caste probably gets votes - particularly if it favors a majority caste over a minority... more votes, even if it is not the best policy in regards of really looking for the best and brightest.\n\nI also looked over theories on the formation of castes and it seems to me that it should be more like... unions?  cliques?  I'm not sure how to put a label on it, but at one point someone probably noticed that certain groups of people with like interests tended to flock together to form social groups.  Now, with advanced educational systems, it is more obvious that someone could have different ideas from their parents and WANT to join a different group based on differing interests - not merely economic... You would still have these groups, but not based on lineage...

These are some of the bad effects of Globalization and politicization of the education. Education curriculum and students are easiest to be target by political parties to make their point and score brownie points from different quarters. \n\nNo one understand where is problem with reservations - is it concept or implementation of this. Similarly adding film stories and making maths and English optional to please a strata of the society who votes and pay money to these political parties to gather power. \n\nSo I fully agree with you that education about which boast around all the world is deteriorating and this way we will loose whatever position we have got in world.

Nothing is bad or good in its own stead. It is the way it is used, implemented and taken up which 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 original for 15 years or implementation of Mandal commission after years of lying in bag. 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.\n\nHowever there is opposition for reservation because the benefit of it are not going to actual people rather they are taken up by some people of these society who are already in up class are taking up these benefits whereas actual needy people are still at the same place. No one will object if a really needy get the benefit, You and all are furious since it is someone who is not needy who is reaping benefit.\n\nAs 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 of deciding giving help however there are too many lacuna in this as getting certificate for economic background is very easy to get since no one file income tax return and there 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.\nI agree that when it comes to job then what we need is 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. 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.\n\nSo mantra for anything to be good and successful is honest implementation of the same.

I have been regularly watching the doctor's protest against reservation policies of government, at the same time some more\n\ngroups are upcoming with them and all this is going on without knowing the facts, and if they feel that they know everything\n\nthen kindly answer some basic questions.\n\n1.who are they to decide that backward classes need resrvation or not? \n\n2.Do they realy know what a backward person faces in his life? \n\n3.Do they really want selection of students on merit basis?If yes,than why they oppose only caste based reservation and\n \nwill they oppose the other kind of QUOTA called as MANAGEMENT QUOTA or NRI QUOTA.IF all the protest is based on the SO\n \nALLED concept of merit,will the protestant also oppose the private medical and engineering college;giving birth to SO \n\nCALLED MERITORIOUS students by engulfing a big price? \n\n4.Do they believe that merit come with caste or with money? \n\n5.If they believe that reservation can pull the country backward,than why & How the SOUTH INDIAN STATES like TAMILNADU,\n\nKERALA,ANDHRAPRADESH & KARNATAK are more developed than the states of north india?Though there is average 60% reservation \n\nis present in both GOVERNMENT & PRIVATE SECTOR. \n\n6.Don't they know that resrvation has not only helped to contribute in providing equality in economical aspects of life\n \nbut also in social aspect of life?\n \n7.Don't they believe that the backward people of general category also need resrvation for equal upbringing of nation?\n \n8.Do they think that India is Free from caste,gender and religious bias and reservation will blow this fire?than I think\n\n they have never visited the rural India where not only the souls of India lives but also lives reasons of all kind of \n\nbiases.\n\nIf people will answer these 8 question,they will realise the truth behind their protest.That is neither related with MERIT\n\n nor with QUOTA,but hidden in own evils of upbringing in WELL-BIASED society.Instead of opposing the the resrvation we \n\nshould demand healthy education that can clean our prejudices.We should demand resrvation for those who realy need that.We \n\nshould demand a SURNAME FREE india so that EKLAVYA & ARJUNA both can serve the nation equally without any BIAS.

Sorry for lengthy answer but it requires lot of introspection and need a complete view to do justice with this topic.\nIn 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.

Yes I agree with you. Instead of demonstrating against corruption and crime is more important then reservation. In fact people have started hating reservation because of corruption and bad implementation of it. In fact people who are demonstrating against reservation 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.

Is this about the controversy in india concerning castes?  Is going to things like procedural issues really helping?  What are the real issues?  What do you think about the opportunities for lower castes?  Is improvement needed? How would you suggest the improvement be made?  Or is the system ok the way it is?  Do you feel lower castes are inferior inherently, in their decision-making or do you feel they simply are discriminated against.  What do you really think?

i don't support reservation based on caste. but the ruling parties with an aim to capture power through vote bank politics implementing caste based reservation. even the kith and kin of ministers, judges, parliament members, ias and ips officers , though in any way not back ward either socially or economically occupying seats in colleges and government jobs.even after 60 years of independence the sons of cobbler remained as a cobbler and the sons of scavengers remained as scavengers. what a shame'. creamy layer are to not to enjoy reservation benefits.reservation policy should be extended only to the people in below poverty line irrespective of caste, creed and religion.
489568
yes . im sure they will. seeing as, not everybody who has a reservation benefits. also, many people forge documents to show that they belong to a backward community.

I think you should add to your question and let us know if this is involving tribal law on a reservation or in American civil law.
