coffee_rules Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Upper caste vote magnet. At least, one man thought about this , after 70 years. Looking at the scepticism among celebrity journalists on twitter, this is a wise move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stradlater Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Why not accommodate this into the overall 50% reservation cap fixed by the SC? 60% reservation wah. Sahi hai bhai. Pehle se khudi padi hi thi ab tum bhi khod lo. A move aimed at creating a wedge in General voter base and nothing else. Singh bling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think this sentiment is not there now?. 70 years of reservation, come to South India, they get grace marks in exams. WTF is this appeasement!

Yahan sala itne salo se competition exams me 1-2 numbers se watt lagi padi hai and now this decision. Jaye toh jaye kahan ab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess middle class which are on slightly upper side has no option but to look for career outside. India . In future reservation will be around 75-80% .

Clarke Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 That BJP = CONGRESS+COW does sound true at times. Do they actually have some creamy layer applied in the reserved quotas or are they all open to use by quota rich & middle class too ? velu, sandeep and Stradlater 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is creamy layer for OBC but you and me both know how easy it is to show your income less in this country esp by non govt employees who btw are in majority.

And on reservation, hopefully there is more reservation that the thing itself becomes redundant and totally inefficient. As it's impossible to withdraw reservation itself.

Actually its BJP supporters also want the same entitlement as Congress supporters/vote bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has begun to start narrative You need the put opposition on backfoot as well, currently there is nothing against UPA and its allies. And that's the biggest pity, as with 5 years, all their crimes and corruption have magically vanished from people's memories. Whereas BJP still has to face the burden of the past. Are we gonna elect Rahul just because of anti-Modi? What exactly has Rahul done in the last 5 years? Modi in 2014 presented with a Gujarat model and banked on some acheivements, but nobody is asking such questions to the opposition. chewy and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Cliff Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 What if RaGa and MahaThugbandhan promise private sector reservation leading up to the elections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have already done that. I think Paswan had it in his agenda. a lot of politicians have it dangling already. If it gets implemented, middle class has no other option but move out of India. They can thrive better in Uganda/Ghana than in India. Stradlater and Jimmy Cliff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternalhope Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Set aside your egos and get your visas ready guys.
