There is no need of emotional writings my dear Ravilla. I still stand by my words that the reservation should only be for economically backward children of the society whether upper caste or lower caste. I am personally experienced that children from Nair Community or Brahmin community, economically poor, obtaining very high marks in their studies, could not get even a peon post in Govt. due to reservation. Due to reservation the eligible children is neglected and they remain poor and they could not get a grip in the society. Therefore, there should not be any reservation. If reservation still persists then it should be one time for a member in a family and not for everybody. and all time. Let the reservation be equal to all , based on the economic status.
Regarding your other points that 80% jobs are occupied by the upper class. In this connection I would like to say that whatever may be the reason, people from the lower class never sent their children for education about 5 decades earlier. Only about 50 years or so they have realized the importance of education and now they are scoring in All India Services, and other elite services. Time has changed. Here, the Rich becomes richer either in upper or lower caste. We should concentrate on Middle and Lower Class people starving for money and education. There are families who cannot take both ends meet in Upper Class. Upper Class does not mean that they are rich by money. Unfortunately or fortunately, they have born in a particular family and due to caste system in India, it is said that he belongs to Upper Class. This upper class man begs sometimes for a cup of tea or one time meal. I speak about them because I have experienced.
Again intelligent children does not need any reservation. Reservation is only in Govt. Jobs. There is no reservation in private sector? There they want merit. I speak about those people. Let all children show their ability . Big big jobs are waiting for them.
Let us build a caste less society and not a deffer society.

I have gone through all your comments, most of them borders on defeat, if not whining.
Reservation is about distribution of opportunity or opportunities to a neglected sections of people who had been treated in an unfair manner, for centuries.All along they had been treated as dirt.
Reservation is not about merit, but about inequality.
Providing education or job is not about merit or meritocracy, but distributing the opportunity based on caste or religion, irrespective of economic situation. Correcting this requires not only political will, but also change in perception on "MERIT"
Even today, even on reservations in force, more than 80% of jobs and education are cornered by well informed and well to do families. How and why? Ask yourselves.
Can you compare the performances of the children of the society, having digital access to that children of the society, having no access to black boards to learn the alphabets? These neglected sections can never think of competing on the examinations designed in favour of digitally informed sections, on equal terms. That is unequal competition and not based merit (as it is perceived by most of the ill informed and half baked arm chaired persons, conveniently sitting on ivory towers)
There is no social equality and/or economic independence for 80% of people of India. The remaining 20% do extremely well. Do you want these 20% corner all the government jobs and free seats available in government or govt supported educational institutions? If it is not injustice, what else could be?
Even race horses are given an opportunity and racing gives and involves handicaps.
Majority of the so called meritorious breds royally send their parents (who paid for their education) to old age homes and gleefully ditched this country (who educated them freely or at nominal costs, including at IITs and IIMs) in the name of easy money (hard work?, pure BS) and lack of opportunities). Most of the meritorious sections never proved that they could help their own parents, leave alone their country or society.
Instead the so called inefficient lowly people (whom we failed and neglected) sought opportunities even in overseas' hell-holes like UAE and ASEAN, working in the scorching sun (and even risking their lives) keep the stoves burning back at their homes, to support their parents and children and helping our country by sending back every penny hard earned!
Anyone who oppose the reservation, even in its correct perspective deserve nothing but old age home and loneliness. Rest assured, God, if at all he is there, will do natural justice.
This is a country, where the mighty despise helpless people. It deserves its failure.
