Reservation system in INDIA!!!

Tweet

This is actually my first article.. And I was going through the newspaper thinking which topic is the most trending one right now In my country that is India. It's a great place after all. It's so culturally diverse that the number of castes and gods/goddesses is more than the population of many countries. So to safeguard the intrests of all these castes we have a reservation system. Relevance of Which is the most controversial issue in the country. It has simply been a great topic of argy-bargy. In my opinion this system should be there in India but it requires amendments. The reservation system has received mixed response since its existence but now over 60 years have passed and still officially there hasn't been a single caste which has crossed the barriers of backwardness,despite all the aids provided. This reservation policy has been marred by corruption and poor political conditions. The major glitch in the system is that it has always been used as a political tool but not as a social tool. Over the years are politicians have been using this policy to fill their vote banks. They offered the treat of reservations to poor castes in return of votes. But this not the only problem. See there cannot be two opinions on the fact that all the possible efforts have been done to improve the condition of the poor and the unprivileged ones. But the current system defeats the purpose for which it was actually created. Allow me to explain. For example there are many so called "backward classes" which are more rich and prosperous than the so called "forward classes". There are several communities which do not require reservations and are still availing the benefits. In my opinion the the reservations should be on economic basis but not on caste basis. If the government is really interested in helping the poor people it has find the real cause of poverty. And as a first step it has to remove the caste system. You can't deny the fact that diversity on the basis of castes is proving to be more and more disdain according to changing times. After abolition of the caste system it has to find the real poor people, the real unprivileged people in every city,town and village. The third step should be to provide them education that too free of cost. After providing education let these backwardpeople face the challenges of life. I would like to quote that " if you give a man a fish you feed him for a day but if you teach a man how to fish you feed him for his lifetime" So why doesn't the government provide them education and uplift these people for their lifetime. Why don't the young people of our beautiful country help the government resolve this reservation imbroglio once and for all...
