my reservations on reservations!!!

i hate to say that eventually this day had to come. People giving up their lives for being categorized as so called "lower caste " or to better put it "under privileged ones". But coming to think of it didn`t we bring this upon ourselves ?
Reservations, Quotas ARGH!!!!( I am actually proud to be a BITSIAN just for this one reason)
but let us put the idea on the table. For the past 60 years since Indian independence we have had reservations . Infinite no. of castes their categories and their quotas ... but still the HR minister Arjun Singh says we need more reservations and implements them in IIMs IITs etc.. what does this tell us ? The very fact that we need more reservation is reason enough to understand that the 60 years of reservations has not done the job...but still we wont accept that the concept is flawed... in fact on the contrary we will actually advocate the increase of reservations...
i still don`t understand why people can`t think logically... i am not against quotas ... but it should be done where it is necessary... all of us agree there is an urban and rural India... i don`t think anyone in mumbai, delhi ,chennai or any of the major cities in india discriminate people based on their caste... but still the government is bent upon doing the same... you should have reservations in places that need them where there is actual discrimination between the so called upper and lower casts...and proper appraisal of the policy should be done to evaluate the success of the policy.... but sadly none in the government have portrayed diligence in implementing of these policies...and why so is any fool`s guess...
