According to my point of reservation should be banned for all castes. I would like explain one situation. I'm preparing for bank exams and I'm in poor condition. I'm not able pay application fee also. But my friend she is ST and also she is very rich. She got no application fee for SC and ST candidates. It is not correct way I think.

I think reservation should not be there in studies as well as in jobs. Because the reservation mostly promotes to the lower educated student who can easily get the admission in good collages. And on the other side the high scorer student is standing in a queue. I think the reservation should be done such as the student who scores a high marks will get the top collages.

People of general cast if I say today in my opinion they should be considered as backward classes as same is treated with general as before backward classes were treated before. Generals are now helpless. So wake up guys today he is not selected due to reservation and tomorrow may your turn comes. So fight for your right.

Reservation should be stop on the basis of caste, But when people will stop asking for caste, when people will stop asking for surname trying to know caste of the person. And finished name of caste from India. When people will knows only from there name not caste or surname. Every people will treat equal in private sector.

Cast Based Reservation System is unnecessary. Its really stupid to give more priorities to people who don't deserve it. Reservations in education and Professional Jobs are dragging India back in the development phase.

Giving special priority to Backward cast is actually highlighting the presence of such people.

I would like to explain some situations:

I studied hard during preparation but they got selected in exams/jobs as cut-off less for them so no need to study much. (once I asked my SC Friend- how much want in GATE exam. He said 60 approx. But we require 90+ out of 100).

I am belonging from town and medium family (not having money after my B-Tech) and they are from big city and rich family and abundant resources of study. Then why government still providing reservation on simple Cast basis.

I am not saying reservation should totally stop but govt. should change their policy of reservation and think for peoples who are from villages and financially weak and have not much resources of study.

Make education mandatory and free for all till age of 15. Propose reservation based on economic status. Provide opportunities to students to earn while they study.

I have only one question, whether any person got employment under reservation helped his own siblings to get educated or well settled? No, he simply ignores his own family members including parents as he feel them outdated. Whether he try to educate his own children with merit? No, he wish his children also come up with reservation.

Even an MP/MLA s children get reservation and lakhs of rupees scholarships. Whether ever Government called for the accounts from beneficiaries how the scholarship was spent? No, if so, does the nation or the society is benefited from reservation?

My opinion is reservation is helping the poor students, but our country giving economically developed people.

In olden days there was a poor person, untouchability that way B. R. Ambedkar, he was to. See that situation. So he was to ask our leaders for ten years development the SC/ST. That it was continuously developing. Now where is the untouchability people SC/ST was developed.

Finally, I conclude that. Reservations are only for talent, not four castes like SC/ST.
