Is the introduction of 10 reservation for generalcategory economically weak by Narendra Modi a masterstroke?
It's a master stroke to deprive the already deprived by grossly violating the Indian constitution.
The
reservation system was designed to ensure that the historically deprived and
underprivileged communities dont continue to be discriminated against. BUT the
complete opposite is happening with the introduction of the 10% reservation for
general category.
For
example:
Read the following letter to the CM of Punjab, which raises awareness that the 10 % reservation for the EWS, the ‘high caste’ students, in practice is ensuring the opposite of what reservations were designed for.
To
Sh
Amrinder Singh
Hon‘
ble C M
Punjab
Subject:
Income Limit for SC students
The
PAGAAM has come to know that department of welfare of SC /OBC has fixed a limit
of Rs 2.5 lac as annual family income for students to be eligible for
scholarships under Post Metric Scholarship Scheme
Whereas
for EWS High Caste Students, under 10% reservation category the income limit is
Rs 8.0 lacs per annum to be eligible for admissions and services under Punjab
Government. This seems to be a cruel joke with students and parents belonging
to Scheduled Caste category.
PAGAAM
is to make a request to your good self to get the matter examined for taking
corrective measures to end the discrimination and partial treatment to most
disadvantaged sections of the society. Kindly get the issue examined and set
the things right preferably keeping same level of treatment if not preferential
as they deserve under the constitution of India.
With
high hopes for positive consideration and fair treatment from the Government of
Punjab
Yours
sincerely

Under
the scheme:
If the
family income of a person coming from the HIGHEST CASTE is, let's say 4.5L,
she/he would be considered almost fifty percent BELOW the poverty line (8.0L)
BUT..
If the family income of a person coming from the lowest wrungs of society, the
historically deprived/underprivileged castes is EXACTLY the
same ie 4.5L, then she/he would be considered as earning nearly
TWICE ABOVE the poverty line (2.5L)
IS
THIS NOT TYPICAL CASTEIST DISCRIMINATION ?
NOTE : The 10% reservation for the general category ruling was passed by the Supreme Court comprising of Brahmins only (now there is one judge from the Scheduled Caste category). Isn't this representation effectively hidden reservation? There are countless other similar examples.
This
stealth move is a cunning masterstroke initiated by Narendra Modi’s bosses, the
Sawaranas in RSS and effectively executed by Modi himself.
