Protests








Full slideshow is on CnnIbn

Another sad outcome of the cabinet meeting has been that the benifit of reservations will not go to the people who are needy and poor and really deserve it, but the creamy layer will be the benificiary. So much for the OBC people crying themselves hoarse that this is for the betterment of the people.

The Final Frontier

Please forward it to those who are concerned!!

Well here comes the moment of truth. The battle lines are finally drawn.As you might be aware, the Union Cabinet passed the bill of 27% reservations for OBC`s in central institutions. The bill would be tabled in parliament towards the end of the current session. The matter is still pending in the Supreme Court. The youth for equality hereby informs and request all its members throughout India and abroad to gear up for the battle that lies ahead.

This is no time for reconciliation; it is the time to stem the ridiculous policies of the Union government to fragment our society on the basis of cast.They believe that by curbing the movement which started in April, they have successfully managed to diffuse the entire matter. Let us show that the fire still burns in out hearts. Let us show them our strength.Let us not waste the time and effort of all the state co-coordinators and other members, who have toiled selflessly over the past few months to carry this movement forward. Let us carry from where we left off, let us once again show the government that such sort of petty wont bank politics have no place in our country. Remember,
DO NOT SPEAK, DO NOT EVEN THINK. IF U CANNOT ACT

No OBC Quota in R&D

The Moily report has recommended that there should be no OBC quota in institutes primarily engaged in R&D. They have also recommended that the fellowship program of the IIMs to not have the Quota.

However, it waits to be seen if the government will take up this recommendation or just do its own willy-ninny. As far as the latest news goes, the Govt is still clueless about the numbers of the OBCs in India.
Quote:
Union government does not seem to have a single figure of the OBC population and has not taken a decision on confirming the figures in the wake of wide gaps between the figures quoted by Mandal Commission report and the NSSO survey.
The IIMs after their look at the govts proposal to increase the seats in the Institute have given the govt. a 500 crore bill and a phased implementation over 4 years. This looks like also adding a 3rd campus to IIM Ahmedabad to take care of the inflow.

And the Govt still seems to be blustering around. The much expected monsoon session has been deffered to the end of Sep/early October. Wonder why they have to defer the monsoon session and its ok, while we have to pay our taxes on time and any slip is going to be fined. Why is the govt not fined for their shoddy work ?

Excellent presentation on reservation from YFE Mumbai
