I am from Tamil Nadu and will never agree with this article. Reservations are politically motivated and to attract more vote banks. Reservation concept was introduced some 40 years back to enable the backward classes to get education. Once you are get undergrad then they should get into higher education with their skills. There are 'n' number of forward caste people who are part of economically weaker sections, very good in academics and still not making into even a decent engineering college. Reason - 69% Reservation!!!Soon a day will come when forward caste members need reservation for thier kids to enter into colleges. Politicains should not use this reservation as a vote bank.Unfortunately this is what was happening in TN and now in the centre also Congress is using the same tactics. God save India.
