In my view, it is now high time to abolish the rule of caste in education. Education is the need of all, from rich to poor, from lower caste to upper caste. Being government of all it is the duty of govt to educate all but when the matter of higher education comes, it should be purely on merit basis. Due to the introduction of caste, many eligible candidates are not getting the opportunity. So that our country is loosing many great ideas.

Yes. We know that in India their 75% people need reservations. Sc, st, vj, nt, obs need the reservation because of their economical condition. Most of the people belong to this caste are poor. As a survey 75% belong to this caste are needed reservations. If you are thinking we have to give reservation on economical then we know that's how much we are computed. Dr. B.A. Ambedkar did a wonderful think by focusing on future consideration.

Reservation in the education system is a very wrong thing because of reservation merit students lose their opportunities.

If the government want each student will learn with equality then the government should ban on the reservation.

Instead of giving reservation on the cast basis give the reservation on the current economic scale of family.

Who is really poor give the concessions in fees not in the percentage or in quota?

No, it is not the only alternative for social equality. Because of this, alternative many deserving candidates do not get admission and have to compromise. So, there is a kind of trade off. Instead of making reservations, there fees should be subsidized depending upon income of the family. This will help in taking admission easily. But the opportunities for all should be same and same admission criteria must be followed.

Nowadays, Reservation system not required. Yes, because of reservation system merit students lose their jobs and opportunities, this reservation system required for after independence 20 or 30years only.

Talented persons losing their jobs because of this reservation, reservation needed for economically backward peoples, not for cast based people, govt should change this cast system, give chance to merit students.

Hello friends.

I partially agree with this reservation system as it help the low caste people to come forward and show their talent. But reservation has a big disadvantage that is in the name of caste, quality of engineers is decreasing day by day. At least in the field of education the opportunity should be awarded according to the individual score. In the IIT exam the cut off should be same for every student.

Opinions of all above indicate that reservation is not needed on caste base. It means it is necessary to abolish caste system first from the society. Once it gets terminated then automatically issue of reservation never arise. So, all experts working on this issue, please you concentrate your efforts on removing caste system from India. If it is not possible then you are misguiding the society on the same issue.

India 2025 would be like 30_40% of seats for general category in education system it doesn't effect much in school life but in long run for professional n prestigious institutes it matters today a guy scoring 98%ile is not likely to get MBA in finance at IIMs rather a guy from reserved category scoring 75_80% is likely to get the same seat and each govt plays with the life of students just for their vote banks.

Reservation is better to give according to their income. In nowadays by reservation name they are getting jobs and enjoying there. They will study in private colleges and they applied for reservation post. In the case of poor people, they don't have money to join in private colleges. Nowadays no one is joining in govt colleges due to lack of teaching. So it better to give reservation according to their income.

Hi, good morning to all of you. I am Ansh Yadav.

Our GD topic is reservation in India.

We know that India is a developing and progressive country. So the reservation should not allow our country. Many developing countries like America China, there is no caste system there. So reservation in India is very harmful to us. And we should abolish this evil and also shall abolish untouchability.

Thank You.
