Sujan Balachandran Hima, I dont think there will be any use for mgmt quota if there was no reservation. Even if I was wrong mgmt quota is a result of reservations and not the other way around. if I was wrong the second time then having mgmt quota does not justify reservation.
We are talking about people who do not have the advantage of both caste and money. What do those people do? Second what people do when they have the advantage of both caste and money, what do they choose to do?
I support reservation but comparing that to mgmt quota is only going to create problems than help you with the campaign 

Sujan Balachandran As for Nitish becoming a union leader, I like the guy, but I am not sure about the semantics of it. He will have to do too many compromises to keep the ship assail. That will be way too much federalism like what was when Chandrasekhar was the PM. That may not be a good thing for our nation now.

Komakkambedu Himakiran How many people who oppose reservations even think about the problems of the less privileged? They don't see beyond their own. All their arguments about meritocracy are merely to undermine reservations, not a single of them protested management quota.
 
Sathya Narayanan S Less privileged don't exists only in sc/st or other reserved community. All people without reserves in assets or affluence are under privileged. That is the real social injustice. 

The ones who have can afford management quota. The ones who don't are miniroty and have no recourse. Does protest give any solution to their already difficult lives when ear action is built on the bane of vote banks? Never underestimate the power of ***** in large numbers. What's the use? They are tired and retired out of fatigue in fending for their own.

Komakkambedu Himakiran without affluence? having 2-3 generations of educated people in the family itself is a big mark of affluence. If you take non FCs, except for a few BC Christians, the rest are all 1st or at the most 2nd generation literates. Compare that to FCs who are 4th or 5th generation literates. 

The ones who can't afford management quota complain about reservations benefiting less privileged of other communities, but don't mind the ones in their own communities buying seats!

Komakkambedu Himakiran Shall we look at bank loans by caste? You'll be surprised to see FCs corner majority of the financial credit, have the highest tax breaks and also NPAs. 

As of now, Union Govt hasn't implemented existing reservations properly. They deliberately leave positions vacant. That's how caste operates in India.

Sathya Narayanan S I never said anything about education not brining affluence to Dalits. Just that not every Dalit is poor which can you deny? Even if I assume you are right that almost all Dalits are illiterate where do you account for their affluence? IMHO there are many educated Dalits also many of them even being bearucrats and in civil services.

Sathya Narayanan S By demanding stats from me, are saying that there is not a single Dalit or any other community under reservation who is affluent regardless of their education? So you would not acknowledge that poor and rich exist in all communities!! Poor in the so called FC is somehow affluent so they don't deserve to feed themselves or to have a dream that someday themselves or their next generation can be atleast middle class without having to worry about day to day, month to month struggles?!!! Now that's social injustice and discrimination.

Komakkambedu Himakiran Sathya Narayanan S we are talking about access to credit itself being  mark of affluence. 

You are the one who keeps complaining about this; please read the SECC 2011 which shows where exactly the castes are in socioeconomic standing. Who said there aren't poor in the FCs? How come you only think about them? What poor means for a FC is different from what it means to a SC. 

For years people kept opposing denying discrimination, now they talk about the mythical poverty stricken FC!

Sathya Narayanan S Kotravan as fervent as your argument be... 'You FC' is not acceptable. I am not talking in favor of FC alone. I am just making an argument that any benefit govt plans must go all deserved. My point has always been give the benefit to all underprivileged. Stating a caste or community is not fair in this day. 

If you talk statistically there won't be good numbers for FC. Why? Because they are already reduced to miniroty. A minuscule proportion and percentile of poor in that demography will hardly ever matter to you. FC are also reproducing less considering there is no relief. Probably less than 1.6 and at this rate they will soon become an extinct species. Then who will you have reservations against? 

Again that's not the point I am trying to make. 'You FC' also sounds racist in the interludes of hatred. That's apartheid. The world has come a far way from those stigmas you talk about being 'underprivileged'. I have seen my grandmother generation like that. I have traveled far and wide. I have accepted all race and creed and also been accepted into all their families. I harbour no grudge. All I am saying is if we have to look for a better future we must change this avengeful vision. Revenge is never a solution. If your grandfather did a crime he must be punished not his grandson. That's the argument of reservation in terms of birth. It's nothing more than organised naxalism. Think about it. No matter how minor FC are they are still the citizens of our country. Don't they deserve equal rights too? Because a few generations back something was wrong why punish them today? Is that fair? They are suffering equally with the same govt as much as you in fact more because they are more discriminated against. The Rajas of the old time who used to be arrogant and haughty and affluent are all paupers today in democratic India and forced to fend for themselves. For sure FC are all not that wealthy. You can pick a handful of those who maybe are. There are still many unaccounted for who don't have anything. Not even an identity leave alone a voice. Even a meak voice is silenced by the angry mob making it a taboo to even claim their identity as FC. FC has thus become today's untouchables. And thus history repeats itself. If at all we need a good future there must be equity povided on the basis of needs. So in essence we are taking the same discriminating based on birth is senseless. Sooner we see all humans as humans being humane world will be a better place with less hatred.

You talk about discrimination? Where? Just because a few FCs didn't get the seats they thought they deserved it's discrimination? You want to talk about discrimination, just see how manual scavengers die and how much outrage is their in FC owned media outlets. Farmers die in hordes while FCs and media talk about FDI and GMOs.

Komakkambedu Himakiran Sathya Narayanan S I criticize everyone. Please look at social and anthropological angles. You didn't argue for all deserved. Your primary point is poor FCs are being discriminated against. There are no numbers for that; also you said only a minuscule population, I said that's wrong as its 16%. Isn't it obvious that you were referring to only Brahmins in your argument. Nothing wrong in that and that's what I pointed out stating as a community, they lived in isolation from the society. That's how it was in all villages and even in towns and cities. Interaction between Brahmins and other communities was limited. All this is pure anthropology. 

I like my friends insulting Brahmins? Where? I've always called out abuse when I see it. I might have missed a few times, just due to the multiple threads and multiple people commenting.

Komakkambedu Himakiran Again how can you say blatant discrimination earlier in the day was bad, but discrimination now is ok as its only subtle!

Your point about fm revenge is moot; I come from a landed community, classified as upper caste and for the past 700 years, we've had a good run on top of society. I don't know what discrimination is. But I support reservations, land ceiling, nationalisation of banks as these are direct endeavors to dismantling of Varnashramam. When we made reservations mainstay in education and entry level govt jobs, there was/is so much resistance. But the fact is less than 0.5 % of all jobs in India are affected by reservations. Even that, Union Govt hasn't implemented it properly. The upper caste bureaucratic/industrial lobby of Delhi/Mumbai pushes privatization, loots the country with 48 lac crores in tax breaks since 2004, 3 lac crores NPAs. Existing reservations are not implemented. Many people who argue saying reservations were ok for 1-2 generations but has to stop now; I haven't seen one of them actually talk about how existing reservations itself haven't been implemented. That's the power of the upper caste lobby spread across bureaucracy, media, industry.
