Anti Reservation.....

To:  The President of India

The Government plans to increase the quota of reservations from the already existing 22.5\% to 49.5\%, in all central universities and colleges.

This means HALF of the seats would be reserved in the Indian Institute of Technology (IITs), Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs), All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi University (DU), Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), national Institute of Fashion Design (NIFT), National School of Drama (NSD) and other prestigious institutes.

The move is based on a Mandal Commission Report, which was commissioned in 1980, which used pre-independence(1930s) data to pen down the recommendations!
Decades have passed since then. While the real recommendations were not implemented, only the 27\% quota was, to gain political mileage. The announcement has also been timed just before the eve of elections, when 5 states are going to polls.

If this isnt vote bank politics, then what is this?

What can a OBC, who doesnt have accesses to primary education, do with reservations in higher educations?

If yes, can we ensure that the "creamy layer" amongst the OBCS (as pointed by the SC, 1992) will not be the beneficiaries and the real benefits will accrue to the ones who need it the most?

Will starving farmers stop committing suicide if their son's and daughter's are granted reservations in IITs/IIMs?

Why is a Yadav in Bihar is an OBC, but a Yadav elsewhere is not?

Is India a country where we tend to appreciate mediocrity?

Who should sign the petition?

If you are a school student or a student at the university: It cuts down your chances to get into the above mentioned institutes by 50\%

Or even if you are a concerned citizen. At a time when India is eyeing a position is the global markets, where we can be proud of the alumni of the IITs, IIMs etc to having put India on the world map, do we want to sacrifice this, and compromise on quality education. Do meritious students deserve this??

The law in the constitution on this has already been amended, with the politcal parties on one side, battle line have been clarly drawn.
But still all hope is not lost.
Its time we raised our voices and stop "the rape of the silent electorate"

Sign the petition for your future, for the future of the country.

You can make the difference.You have to make the difference.....
Its now or Never....

Sincerely,

Sincerely,
