DEBATE ON RESERVATION SYSTEM
--------------------------------------------------------------
Reservation was established in our educational institutes & government jobs by our first government led by Pt Nehru who believed in a Socialistic India with equal distribution of resources & opportunities for all. It was provided to the most backward classes mainly the tribals & adivasis who came to be known as SC & ST. It really helped in the beginning as these sections of society were the most deprived & needed these opportunities to improve on the social scale. It was to be reviewed at the end of 10 years whether some castes or tribes by the virtue of their improved status could be pulled back from the SC & ST.
But rather than shortening the list, the list always grew in number. Then came a vicious cycle such that the second generation of these people who were originally benefitted by reservation by means of their improved resources again grabbed the benefit of reservation. This did not allow the other people of this category to enjoy the same benefits.
As a result, the benefit of reservation reached say just 10-20 % of the population of SCs & STs. This also created a divide in this category into 2 types of people---The ones who benefitted from reservation & the ones who did not. The divide has been widening ever since.
In thethe 1990s, the issue of OBCs also rose onto the national scene. Prominent OBC leaders were now in control of big states like UP, Bihar etc. They saw an opportunity to play a political masterstroke by raising the issue. Caste politics became even more rampant. The reservation touched 50%.
The same vicious cycle has now also gripped the OBCs. Now it has become a rat race to get one's caste included in the OBCs. The day is not far when Rajputs, Brahmins, Thakurs would demand them to be declared as OBCs.
So, ultimately reservation has not served the purpose it was made for. It may have benefitted
a few people but failed to remove the gap between the upper castes & lower castes.
It will continue to fail for whatever number of decades or centuries it will be continued for.
There can be several solutions to the problem like:-
a) Intercaste marriages
b) Benefit of reservation to one generation only
c) Improving the educational infrastructure in rural areas
d) Bringing the level of government primary & secondary schools on par with private schools
e) Opening up of more centres of higher education & creating multiple brands not just the IITs, IIMs, NITs, AIIMS.
f) Providing job opportunities in various fields not just IT sector
g) Lastly, reservation based on economic criteria but I doubt that it will really be possible practically in India as it will require a huge machinery of bureucrats, transparent functioning of the IT department & lot of political will power. I believe it will turn out to be yet another black money churning machine with the politicians, bureaucrat & rich corrupt people all hand in glove.
h) But most importantly, what we require is a will power to rationally discuss the issue of reservation in our Parliament to the panchayat.
Reservation is no less than a genie which we have failed to put back in the bottle & it will continue to haunt the 21st century India.
