RESERVATION-as many young and progressing individuals in our country would term it as THE MAIN problem in our country today,talk to them about the gujjar agitation and they get pissed off about the issue,saying that such politics is ruining our nation today........hmmmm........i tend to disagree on some points...........
lets see,when our country got independence 60 years ago the meena community got the ST status,the gujjars who were less in number but equally backward got the OBC status(i dont knw why!!!!!) you see, the benefits enjoyed by the STs in out country are different than those by the OBCs,so in the last 60 years the meenas,in a way,prospered due to reservation and today we see meenas working in so many government offices right across the country..............not the gujjars,but the gujjars were contented with what they had,not satisfied,but contented and were always asking for the ST status.........
now,in the last general elections in rajasthan,the BJP promissed the gujjars a ST status if they cam in power,which they did.so now they wanted what had been promissed to them,by hook or by crook,they had seen the progress the meenas had done thru the same reservation and now they wanted it as well..........and so the agitation..........
now,in the last 6o years this small community of rajasthan has given our country only soldiers and dacoits(yes DAKUS of chambal),they consider both the professions very dignified,and regard such people with great respect............but in todays age of globalisation and progression in the country,they feel a bit left behind,today they also want to be doctors,engineers,IASs,IPSs.......they want to be a part of the change that india is going through today,they dream of watching their children grow up with a better life than what they have lived till now,do they dream wrong???????
i refuse to believe that this is a political issue in any way,i think its a social issue that has been politicised.i feel,this community has got the RIGHT to be called a SCHEDULED TRIBE,you can take away the benefits of a community if it doesnt deserve it,but you cannot take away its rights.
maybe my friends would still disagree with me,yes reservation is an evil in our society,but in some cases,while in other cases it can be boon for some needy people........
the government needs to look into te matter from a social front and not from the political front(i wonder they've got the guts to do it)

hey
really a nice one...
i didn't thought that way....
gud work
well wat u said is true ...
take sumthin away and person flies into a rage
but burning buses, disrupting travel routes, raising state wide alerts, angry mobs is not the way to go for any individual
more constructive means are possible....
guess no1s listening...
u say dat dis is not the way 2 do it,but do u understand tht u r able to think on these constructive lines b'coz u've had a decent education in last 20 yrs.,my point is tht dese people are actually so far behind us sociallly and intelectually tht they cannot find a better way(they r tribals)
