Hello friends, my name is Shivam Dwivedi.

Today, I am here to discuss the reservation in India.

In my opinion, reservation should be based on the income of the family not be based on the caste system.

Many talented person or student not be selected in any government sector just because of reservation.

Because of lower cast person get minimum marks and easily get the job and in another hand, upper cast student get higher marks but not selected just because of reservation.

In my opinion, selection of student in government, exams should not be based on the reservation so our country becomes a great country in the world.

Reservation is a system which has been running for a long time. That's why our country is not growing because there is only one reason behind this cast reservation. 80% of the talented student is getting a good mark and they have also good knowledge however they are not getting a better opportunity in our country and some students are moving towards abroad and those country is taking advantage of it. As we all aware about that there are many names who invented the various thing.

Finally, I would like to say the government should put a ban on cast reservation asap by doing this it will also create a good picture in youngsters mind but it's not possible the only one reason politics.

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

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

Instead of giving reservation on the basis of the caste if it should exist on the basis of the creamy and non-creamy layer.

What I mean to say is it should be provided on the family income basis like those who are poor and never got a good opportunity in their life.

Hi friends.

I think that it's not important to have a reservation in education instead of giving reservation in education they can give reservation in financial condition that will be better because of it not important that every person who is poor belong to the same caste.

Reservation is a hot topic today. From teacher to politicians, from students to employees, Every profession is affected by the reservation system. Now India is developing that's why it has to face many challenges. The reservation system is one of them. It is a pol necessity in India.

As we see that many cases are making attempts to be classified as backward to take the benefits of caste-based reservation. And they make riots to get the reservation.

So, I would like to say the government should put a ban on cast reservation.

Hello friends, I am Hari.

According to my opinion, reservation in education not matters a lot. It's necessary objective is that, students from all caste, it may be poor or rich should get equal opportunities of getting admission and job and family income is much more evident to caste.

In present reservation scheme, the percentage of seats provided are much proportional to the population of respective caste except for open which has got about 50 percent; and it is appropriate in order to have opportunity to students from poor families, other casts (SC, ST, OBC) which will lead to development of rural areas with SC, ST cast people.

Hi this is Samyuktha.

In my point of view, that reservation is the wrong system in education. Students are suffering from these reservation systems. The candidates who are belonging to unreserved candidates are having more discrimination among the students.

DR. BR AMBEDKAR who was our national leader brought this caste based reservation system in education. He wrote in the constitution book for a period of this will be applicable. But our political leaders for getting sympathy on caste to get votes they are extending the reservation system.

In government jobs also reservation system by putting the cut off marks less for the minority candidates.

In olden days most caste discrimination is prominent due to unawareness among the people.

But nowadays they are having more money and they are well settled in society.

The unreserved who are coming from the poor background they are facing many problems.

So, I conclude that the government should take necessary steps to provide a reservation system to the unreserved candidates also.

Hi, this is Sreevignya. I think reservation is not perfectly necessary for higher education. Because everyone is equal in society. I wish in future, there should be no reservations among castes. Everyone is getting educated. There is no difference between the castes. So, I hope the reservation is not at all necessary.

The reservation system has helped a lot in the betterment of the society, earlier backward classes were not even treated as humans. It was a very bad scenario. Many of them have actually come out of that poverty line but to say that the problem has been solved is an understatement.

There are still many villages which are in a bad situation, to know the state of the backward people we have to go to the very depth of it. They won't even know about the reservation system.

And the major set back which will follow if the reservation system is suddenly banned is that those minorities are going to suffer massive bullying. Bullying on bases of the cast is still prevailing in schools. People are afraid of disclosing their cast. Dalits are still being the victims of mob lynching.

So, as the topic asks if the reservation system was the only alternative for social equality then I would say no there is still a lot to be done.
