Never imagined that one day we will be paying
- Base price
- OMC cost and margin
- Excise Duty
- Petrol pump dealer commision
- VAT
And still won't be getting pure petrol for our cars but only E20 and above, so let's add more cost to it.
- less mileage
- more maintenance in non-compliant vehicles
- more water consumption
So, basically we created a whole bunch on new issues to solve one issue just by poor policy planning and implementation.
The MP govt has raised reservation in direct recruitment to 73%. The remaining 27% isn’t earmarked for general category, it’s open to all.
The matter went to the SC, where the MP govt, in its affidavit, made arguments like these:
The Varna system deprived 80% Bahujan Shudras of rights and exploited them for centuries.
This system, reinforced by ideas of God’s will, rebirth, and fatalism, left Shudras so crippled that they could not even imagine resisting injustice.
Ram killed Rishi Shambuk for daring to perform jap-tap despite being a Shudra.
Dronacharya denied Eklavya because he was a Bhil.
All of this can be disproven with even a little scrutiny, yet it’s shocking to hear such statements from a BJP govt. One would expect them to bridge divides and unite Hindus, this does the exact opposite. And if BJP truly wants to follow this path, why stop short? Why not reserve 100% for Bahujans? Why not close the doors entirely to the general category and be done with it for once and all?
