Would you say someone who has scored a 40 is as competent as someone who scored a 90? Someone who got a seat/ position in office – because of his birth – is as competent as someone who struggled to get the same job? If so, you are in a unique minority that places no emphasis on any competitive system – simply accepts the imbalance as part of the norm (since it suits your purpose, I am assuming).
I do not deny that gross injustice was done. I am all for ‘righting the wrong’ – but not with the means currently being used – which simply wrong another section of society and put everyone’s life in harm’s way. The correct means involve providing a level playing field – I.e. Provide facilities, books, libraries for OBCs – but not lower the standard of passing them ( or providing them jobs)

It is a well acknowledged fact that gross social injustice has been done to many sections of the community for ceturies which you seem to assume have been undone by reservation policy in place for just 50 years! On the issue of merit and expertise, you seem to falsely assume that members from dalit community (most of them) are incompetent simply because they havent scored well in their 12th boards

Expressing someone’s view in a public forum cannot come under contempt ( unless you live in a dictatorship). I would also ask you -since you seem to have understood the judgement differently from others in this forum – to provide me with your interpretation of the judgement.

Thanks

I am pretty sure what you have written comes within “contempt”. If you are not sure what that is google it. And next time you wish to make stray remarks on a judge at least bother to read his judgment first!!

whenever surgery has to be made to these high profile people (parliamentarians, ministers,executives,) it should be made mandatory to them to go to surgery in the hands of reservation candidates…

Also, I’d like to ask both these justices if they would agree to a bypass surgery or a surgery for their son/daughter in the hands of a surgeon who has got through the OBC quota – and not on merit 🙂
