If 69% of population of our country gets the reservation for 49% than what is wrong in this our legends had seen a dream that our nation will be one of the developed nation, so finally ending my words I would say that for the fulfillment of that dream we all have to move ahead in a organised manner & for that reservation is required for some years.

People who are well to do in society should not get reservation. If reservation has to be given to those who need it, to bring up their families (Poor people). The current form of reservation is for those who are making mock of the system.
See 50% reservation is there and those people who are well to do, they have their kids in very good education system, they avail the reservation, there by denying to those who are poor and tried reservation also but because of these selfish people, they cannot get admission.

Hello friends, I am Akash.
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 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.

I partially agree with the given statement because the reservation only creates a gap between the different castes the government should have to modify or revise the rules and regulations in the reservation because the best way to identify the deserving candidate is to go into the ground level and maintain the data regarding that because some deserving people are unaware about it, due to which a large gap is created among the people of the nation and it also increasing the poverty.

Reservation is a myth specially for OBC they the minorities get nothing except for misconceptions regarding benefits which the ruling majority imparts with full intended purpose to win the election and other general class people think that they draw immense benefit. OBC enjoy only relaxation in age apart from that all benefits are for SC/St candidates.

I think reservation is the best way to achieve equality among people. Before reservation, every person of low caste suffers from different traumas, torture, and things like untouchability. They even did not get the opportunity to sit in the class. The girls who are willing that the reservation should be banned, have forgotten that the right they are getting to get jobs with higher priority are due to reservation.
I think there is a need for reservations in India because if it gets banned the situation will be even worse than before the reservation, the Dalits will suffer more as compared to before. There is so less quantity of girls and boys of open caste who belong to poor families, and if they are very talented then no one can stop them from achieving success.

Hello Everyone.
Reservation is defined as a system of providing special privileges to certain groups based on caste rather than merit.
While the intention behind reservation is to uplift the underprivileged, it has created disparities by prioritizing caste over individual capability. Merit-based opportunities are essential for national progress, and reservation often leads to inefficiency by granting seats to less-qualified candidates over more deserving ones.
Instead of caste-based reservation, financial assistance and skill-based support should be provided to truly uplift the economically weak, regardless of caste. Thus, reservation, in its current form, hampers fairness and should be reconsidered for a meritocratic system.

Hello Everyone.
Reservation is defined as the positive discrimination for bringing the backward student into the mainstream.
Reservation is a very good idea for bringing backward-class students into the mainstream. Until now, there has been no alternative to reservation in higher education for social equality.
