Reservations policy is NOT an economic alleviation policy but is a constitutional remedy against historical caste exclusion, lack of representation and caste discrimination!
The Manusmriti denied equal social and political rights to Shudras and Ati-Shudras. The founding fathers of India corrected this historical wrong and centuries of exclusion by giving proportional representation to SCs and STs in public services and educational institutions, and later to OBCs in educational institutions.
Methodically, both Executive and Judicial coercion is being used to ambush the faithful intent of affirmative action in the form of reservation and the reality of caste discrimination, and convert it into a poverty alleviation scheme!
Upward mobility does not erase the caste identity of an individual!
If the upward economic mobility of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes has indeed dismantled caste-based discrimination against them, how does would one explain the reproduction of caste discrimination, continued prejudices and abuse against high-ranking SC and ST officers in bureaucracy and civil services, academicians, and political leaders!?
Did upward economic mobility spare the former CJI from enduring casteist abuse, the shoe-hurling incident and everyday casteist comments online?
Did upward economic mobility IPS officer Y. Puran Kumar from caste-based harassment and discrimination within the police and bureaucratic system, which forced him to take his own life?
Is it not true that SC and ST civil servants receive weaker APAR/ACR evaluations, fewer plum postings, and slower promotions due to informal caste networks and favouritism in bureaucracy?
How does one explain the housing discrimination against SC and ST professionals in metropolitan cities or why IIT/IIM students from the reserved category mocked over reservation and assumed to be incompetent? Or, how the curse of caste and caste discrimination is rampant in the Indian diaspora?
Who has given the right to the Executive and Judiciary to dismantle and redefine caste-based reservation policy?
Who has given the right to the Executive and Judiciary to convert a social justice and representation policy to a economic alleviation policy?

@IslamicCrusher@SANDEEP26949814@MissionAmbedkar Ha, because that required separate commission to study what all castes need to be added to OBC and what is their Socio-economic conditions. Babasaheb put forward to study this first, however when the Nehru govt didn't do it, he resigned. Pata kch rhta nhi gyaan dene aajate ho
You cannot address discrimination by bringing in more discrimination. My take on UGC guidelines which has created more hate on student campuses instead of addressing it. The Education Minister needs to step in.
