PBS's Frontline did a 3 part series on this...\n\nI have mixed emotions and mixed opinions on what happened.\n\nYes, the Chinese government went overboard in killing so many innocent students and if you know what really happened, they weren't just students. The protests had grown to a point of attracting many many other types of ppl.\n\nNow with that said, I am going to make an extremely unpopular statement/opinion. I am a marxist at heart and have studied the writings of Lenin in depth. Lenin, while a pacifist, knew that there were times to be use force to control mutiny.\n\nLenin wrote about the ones that will try to overthrow the idealism of a fair and equal society... the ones that won't accept the weak having the same or the ones that won't accept a no class system.\n\nWhile I know this incident was not about that.. I do realize that this incident threatened the fairly new communist Chinese regime. I truly believe the Chinese regime would have been weakened had they given into the protesters due to the vast number and the length of the protest... not justifying the slaughter but saying I understand the stopping of the protest.\n\nIn that Frontline series, the Chinese government warned them.. gave them days to leave... they chose to stay. They chose their destiny.

yes i agree with you...but the thing is ppl esp. politicians for their personal interests (eg.to gain votes)have never taken any action and do not want to in the future..moreover they dont care who is suffering unless they are affected.in the present scenario if you just observe then students are protesting against the quotas.. and the students who are eligible for the quotas they in turn are against these students..i.e because they do not want to work hard and why will they because they are getting so many fecilities even if they are not worth them.. so the students eligible for the quotas must also start protesting against reservations telling tht they can prove themselves and get into instituitions without reservation and on pure merit.. if they do this then surely some change might happen..and in todays world you can also see tht the so called backward class ppl have such a good and sophisticated life style and the so called upper classess barely manage to have a days meal.

There is no surprise in Sonia Gandhi's victory in Rae Bareli. She has enacted a drama as she did in 2004. This will help to improve her image in the media and not among the public. But the opposition parties have no moral grounds to raise their voice in the Office of Profit issue. BJP has walked out of parliament regarding this issue. But they are the first to enact a law in Jharkand to prevent disqualification of their MLAs. They are opposing it at National level.\n\nLeft parties are getting the maxm advt. in the new law to avoid disqualification of MPs.\n\nSo no body have the moral ground to talk regarding this issue. They are shaping the feet to suit the sandals.

yes, I think they should be sent home. We have too many people here as it is. Besides, maybe if they didn't work so cheap, we would get more money. The cost of living is expensive. They have more rights then we do in many cases including medical and education. They need to go home.

Why do you want millitant trade unionism! Late Datta Samant was the one who pioneered militant trade unionism in India. I remeber when he was murdered -- one newspaper quoted -- those who live by bullet die by bullet. It is holding industry to ransom and one become puppet at the hands of union leaders. This eventualy leads to the death of the industry. Mumbai cotton mills was one such example.

quota policy sucks. Arjun singh is man with one leg in graveyard.This ministers send their own sons to foreign universities and tamper with Indian education. What does Arjun Singh know about hardwork for getting into to IIM & IIT.If he is so much hell bent on implementing constitution then he must also know that reservation was suppose to be time bound when it was first introoduced, but today it has becom a political gimmick. Arjun Singh is not Human resource Development minister[HRD] but Human Resource Demolisher{hrd} minister.God save us from him.

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 think it's apalling that politicians (especially those currently facing charges of violence against peaceful protesters in the Ghandi Ashram) should advocate the suppression of freedom of expression. Amir Khan should be celebrated for having the courage to see beyond the short term benefits (ie more money locally, large scale investment) a large scale development project brings and instead see the life long harm it can do to those affected by it - those in real need of development funding.\n\nAmir's comments are inline with the supreme courts anyway. I just hope the ban acts effectively to highlight the issue even further, and perhaps go some way to moving society away from corrupt 'bully boy' politics and towards democracy powered by the votes of the people and not the votes of the rupee.\n\nThanks for highlighting the issue. I live in the UK and I'm glad to learn something new.

Public service for ALL graduates, whether from medical or any other school, would be for the good of the country. There are many people who can not afford medical services, dental services, ophthomological services, legal services, etc. and for recent graduates to serve poor people in these areas, would have benefits for both sides. The graduates would have the chance to practise their skills and the very special experience of dealing with real people in real situations. The people who could not otherwise afford these services would be given medical, dental and ophthomological care, or legal services, which could literally save lives or change their lives, and their children's lives, for the better.  \n\nIt's an interesting discussion. Hope this helps.

Yep-as poor as I am they have my support. Before I get run over I know some care about our rights. Also emailed them and told them-many are behind them. No matter how ugly it gets.

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.

Ill be there. If people aren't willing to join this protest than they are lazy beyond repair or very, very sad!\n\nMy Girlfriend will love this one. We protest like this everyday....sometimes more than once. This kinda reminds me of Lennons "bed in for peace". He knew what he was doing. All they are saying is Give "O" a chance people!

There are a couple of issues here and you have hit one of them on the head.\n\nThe knock on effect is that having sourced the workers from overseas there will be no jobs for School leavers at all, so it's onto Uni or the dole. Note the recent policy change announcement to keep Kids in school till 18!\n\nThe other is that the domestic birth rate is still falling, I believe in part due to the requirement for a second income in order to afford a mortgage these days.
