Answer 1

if there were no caste and money in india than how we will gona to know thats india

Answer 2

Are u talking about the case of marriage or is it a general matter?

I think u r talking about marriage!

If it's so then oh yes! u have truly said. Most of the pple in India look at the girl's or boys caste and money and not the other merits or capabilities he/she possess.
This is due to the narrow mind of the society.
Pple compare him/her with the material things n they can't see what he/she actually possess (in terms of GOD gift).

They forget that money comes & goes and never stays with anyone. It can be earned if he/she has potential to do that.

And caste doesn't matter a lot according to me!

Answer 3

What makes you think that merit is not considered and only caste and money is considered. What you ask may be true still in some parts of india mostly in Villages where not all the people are educated. Unless all of them are educated and rise in the society, bit of the injusdise will remain. Its mainly due the heridity factor so unducated people see that only rich and high cost can hold positions.

Answer 4

Who told merit is not considered in India? APJ Abdul kalam is purley a meritorious candidate, Our prime minister is another example.

Why do u look for negative aspects? They are all very less in no, the caste system just gives some quota and not complete domination and the money is a personal thing (that is some body in need of something pay it thru black methods and are getting it)

Answer 5

The Best way to diversify all Reservation System in India, is to make it on Income criteria. Such as 50 % seats reserved for families below annual income of say Rs.20,000/-. All the problems to this question will be solved. But it is only the politicians who want to stick to that old system, only for the sake of their own playing with the game.

Dr. Ambedkar had suggested this reservation system for upcoming of SC/ST people for period of ten years, from 1951. But there was a sub clause that in case of need it can be extended for further ten years.

It was in 1961 Jawaharlal Nehru who extended it up to 1970, then Indira Gandhi from 1971 to 1980, then again from 1981 to 1990, then Rajiv Gandhi from 1991 to 2000, then Atal Bihari Vajpeyi from 2001 to 2010.

Any political party has no courage to do the right job. Once upon a time Bajpeyi had spoken as a opposition party leader in the year 1993 to make this system on Income Basis, but he was compelled to apologise in the Parliament just on the next day !! This is all Indian politics.

The wife of Dr Ambedkar had addressed a public meeting in Ahmedabad in 1992, mentioned that my late husband did not wish this system for so many years, as is now working in India. He had thought the extension clause for only for once or twice.

Otherwise you very well understand that poors can be from the caste of Brahmins, Jain, Patel, Muslims too. And those who are not Poor even from SC/ST castes, must be deprived from availability of benefits from this system. Its very simple. Please take this issue before public opinion again and again.

Repeat, Please take this issue before public opinion again and again. So once upon a time reservation system must be changed to Income Basis criteria.

Please do not worry how Government will decide Income base to all individuals. Presently all applicants to state housing board’s housing scheme and all applicants of petroleum product dealership, have to sign an affidavit of Not having annual family income over Rs.50,000/-. Our govtt has successfully issued separate ration cards to families “Below poverty Line” families. There are so many other ways too.

Answer 6

Its the same everywhere not just India!

Answer 7
