The reservataion saga

Finally the government won their reservation battle and introduced 27% for OBCs in all national institutions. Hope they will increase the total number of seats in order to satisfy all sections of the society. All the peaceful attempts by students to avert this decision failed. Its possible that violent protests, communal clashes would have helped in pushing back the government but even in that case, government would have still won by using the army. However the latter attempt would have hampered the country's secularist reputation.
I can't believe Dr.Singh supported this reservation policy. I guess for the vote bank the congress government will stoop to any levels. Also I would have loved to see the technology companies oppose the move as they are the ones to be ultimately affected. Hardly anyone mentioned the issue. There are some sections of the society who were against the reservation protests. This snippet from yesterday's issue of deccan herald which indicates such a move is pretty frustrating.

"The All India Minorities Front has called for “social boycott” of anti-reservation agitators from June 1 as a “tit for tat” measure.
Addressing a press conference on Monday, AIMF National President S M Asif said the anti-reservationists are acting on behest of “communal forces and education mafia”. “Their protests are an insult to the whole nation, as 85 per cent of the population is pro-res-ervation. We will stop co-operating with those who are against the quota policy,” Asif threatened. Muslims have welcomed the quota proposal as “85 per cent of the OBC are Muslims.”
Arjun Singh absolutely deserves no respect. Literally he was smashed by Karan Thapar in his interview on IBNLive
The interview depicts his complete allegiance towards reservation like a blind belief.
May be the OBCs can make it to the elite institutions, but am sure the profs will make sure that only the deserving candidates pass out.
