Reservation is a buzz word in India.Due to underlying benifit in it allmost everybody want to prove himself most backward to avail the advantage of reservation in admission,employment,etc.But this system has some dangerous implications which should be discussed properly.
Reservation refers to the government policy of the positive discrimination to ensure inclusive and egalitarian society.For this overt purpose no body should have complained about it.
Now let us see the basis of providing reservation.It is based on the socio-economic backwardness.It is a accepted policy to identify backwards according to the castes as suggested in mandal case.
So the conclusion is anybody belong to particular caste can avil advantage of the reservation.The biggest paradox is it is based on the status of parents.
Now take one case study.In the civil service examination conducted by UPSC in year 2006,one guy who is Superintendent of police in some district of one state of India apperas in this examination.His father belongs to OBC category.So when he finally qualified in the exam,his allocation of service was done on the basis of his parents status without considering the fact that he is a SP from last 5 years.
This type of several cases can be easily seen at several places which is not good in the larger interest of students or society.
This paradox of reservation should be tackled firmly as soon as possible to avoid social cleavage and frustartion among forward caste students.
