How many of you think that seats reservations in educational fields in India is wrong?

Answer 1

yes , reservation in educations on ground of cast and tribe is wrong . in my opinion reservation in fields which require skill of high level like doctor , engineer , army is totally unjustified . it is creating brain drain & unrest in intellectuals & also compromising with our growth and development , adversly affecting our economy . our politicians are using it to increase vote banks .

Answer 2

I really think that there should not be any kind of reservation in educational fields. it has to be open, why these kind of unnecessary reservations in India. The briliant and hardworking students should get better oppurtunity for studies, it is not like below average student in reservation category opt for professional courses. Now a days even SC ST guys are rich enough and Indian government is unnecessarily providing seat reservations. In my opinion whatever the category, whatever the caste, religion, the hardwoking, best student should get entry for all the courses.

Answer 3

Can you deny the fact that an above average student from the privilegd class has better chances of making it to IIT than a brilliant guy from the underprivileged class?. If this is true, then the just avaerage guy from privileged class has better chances of living a decent life whereas the above average guy from the under privileged is prone to remain unemployed and deprived of any opportunity to lead a decent life.

Unfortunately, Ithe upper class is ruling India ever since and they do not make more than 10% of the population. If there is an uprise of the suppressed class which is 70% of the population, then it will be more serious than the reservation.

Answer 4

Sorry for lengthy answer but it requires lot of introspection and need a complete view to do justice with this topic.
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.
However 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:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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; giving birth to so called meritorious students by engulfing a big price?
5. Reservation will take country backward: If that is true then why & how the south Indian states likes Tamilnadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh & Karnataka are more developed than the states of north India? Though there is average 60% reservation is present in both government & private sector.
We have to swallow bitter pill that India is still not free from Caste, gender and religion bias. To remove it we need everyone at equal social status. We need healthy education that can clean our prejudices. We need reservation for those who really need that and we need a surname free India so that Eklavya & Arjuna both can serve the nation equally without any bias.
So mantra for anything to be good and successful is honest implementation of the same.
