Few
days back on net I read about reservation. The definition of reservation has
changed in last 3-4 decades. Different sections of society are aggressive and
demanding reservation for them because now the reservation is like getting a
direct benefit without hard work while the really poor and needy feel harassed
because he doesn’t get it even when he/she is talented. In many cases reservation makes
rich richer and makes poor poorer and creates inequality in society which is
against the objective of constitution that there must be EQUALITY AMONG ALL.
The reservation is becoming a social culprit with each passing day.
Let’s
imagine a scenario as under mentioned:-
A
person who belongs to reserved section of society starts his education with
financial concession in fees, relaxation in age and also gets relaxation in
marks. In many courses, colleges, universities etc. he receives financial
scholarship just because he belongs to reserved class. He gets his
degrees/certificate although he/she may not be enough capable. Now after
completing his/her education when he/she is equipped with educational degree
like others but still for getting job he/she gets benefit again (reduced form
cost, less marks and relaxed age criteria) and after getting government job he
gets salary as per government grades which is normally 40-50 thousand now a
days and now the reserved
person is well equipped financially as well as socially to take care of his
family and is a part of society at par with others. He/she is
having good house, car, scooters and his children’s are getting education is
top private institutes of the city and his children’s will also get reservation
benefit like his parents which clearly means now the children’s will rise one
level above the society which definitely creates inequality in society against
the law of equality as mentioned in constitution and clearly rich becomes
richer.
Also
thinks about a scenario where civil structures are built by an inefficient
Engineer or health services given by an incompetent Doctor’s.
While
on the other side of the coin a general category student starts his education
but drop out because of his inability to bear educational expenses or completes
his education by working hard or borrowing from others and becomes a merit
holder but when he applies for a job he had to again pay more for the form cost
and needs to fight with least marks scorer and still doesn’t receive the job he
is capable for, then he adjust for some private job or get some junior job
where he works as an assistant under the least scorer and unable to take care
of his family and leaves a poor people life in society and again he is not able
to take care of his family and his children’s get education in government
school/charitable school or in some simple school and his children’s also
doesn’t get good education and unemployed and again inequality generated in
society and clearly poor becomes poorer.
I
AM NOT AGAINST RESERVATION but reservation must be given to only those who is
meritorious and financial week and needy irrespective of his caste or religion.
Anyone
must be given on merit and financial status of the society AS PER THE OBJECTIVE
OF EQUALITY AMONG CAN BE ATTAINED.
