Reservation provisions were mainly included in Indian Constitution to provide equal opportunities on the grounds of category and religion to provide Education and Job to all recognised categories like SC/ST, OBC, PwD etc. At that time situation was different, most people who belonged to these categories and classes were unable to get good education and job but now situation has changed. I am not saying that all reserved categories have turned prosperous and all of them have access to good education, a healthy lifestyle but we must understand that the gap has been filled enough to reconsider a look into reservation provisions again. The then good intentions of Constitution maker to uplift the society may now be causing discrimination to majority of general category poor people.

Now the point is -

  • When reserved category situation is getting better, then reservation % should be decreased.
  • Why reservation is Increasing day by day?
  • If we talk about OBC Category, It also came for people who does not belong to creamy layer so don’t you think EWS and OBC should be merged?
  • Don’t you think reservation has now started creating hatred among people?
  • It should be on Economical basis.

    I saw 30% EWS reservation is trending on twitter and I’m glad to see the #EWSआरक्षण30प्रतिशतकरो trending . In a democracy, unity is the key to success, and the General caste will need to work together to combat this unfair system. The goal of reservations was to end discrimination without punishing the general caste.
    I belongs to general category and i have seen how the other casts students are taking advantage of reservation .According to me the time has come either finish the reservation or make EWS 30%.

      For the last two months, a post circulated on Social media that Claims that once Dr. BR Said that “The day a tribal woman becomes the President of India (the highest post), the country should abolish the reservation”

      And Now Indian Government should take action on this and should abolish the reservation.

      Now reservation should be on the grounds of the financial conditions and not the caste as now whole situation has changed as compared to previous times.
      As due to this reservation criteria many deserving candidates cannot get the chance to secure a government job even their marks are appropriate.

      reservation should abolished for economically strong section weather they belong to any cast and given to only weeker sections it is totally based on income not on cast. But we can’t removed reservations system from our constitution because if Baba saheb given the concept of reservation mean it has some useful benefits for SC/ST and some other cast.

      Mai hhi EWS category se belong karta hu aur mjhe ye baat ache se pta hai ki is reservation ka log kaise misuse kar rhe jin tak iska fayda milna chahiye use ni mil rha aur aaj kal jo is category ki eligibility fulfill ni kar rhe vo b certificate bnake misuse kar rhe hain so i think reservation ka purpose fulfill ni ho rha so reservation is not good…. I think

          Reservation ka misuse toh aaj kl bht zyada kiya jata h fake caste certificates bna kr…Aye din andolan hote rhte h iski wjah se. Rajasthan mein aye din Gurjar andolan hota h kyu the main reason is reservation.

            When we talk about reservation, we usually think of equality but what really matters is equity.
            Giving opportunities to one who needs it the most, it is required to bring the underprivileged to the same level be it any gender, cast or religion. I strongly believe that human resource is the most important resource of any nation and it is good quality human resource that that alone can push the nation forward.

            Since the entire scenario has altered from earlier times, reservations should now be made based on financial circumstances rather than caste.

            Main general category see hu..aur ye reservation ka torture mujhse achha kon jaan sakta hai…graduation main mere ek friend ke Gate exam main mujhse kam marks aaye the and usko reservation ki wajah se kam marks main bhi IIT mil gya and mujhe same marks main private university se masters karna pda…its was a heart breaking moment for me…

            So due to this reservation, many qualified candidates—even those with acceptable grades—cannot secure a govt university.So please remove the reservation.

            Three key questions for examining 10% EWS quota fixes by Supreme Court

            Chief Justice of India U.U.Lalit on September 8,2022finalise 3 important issues for examining the 103rd Constitutional Amendment which provides a 10% quota to EWS of the society in educational fields like Government jobs and educational institutes to check if law violation of basic structure.

            The three key questions are:
            1- whether the 103rd Constitution amendment can be said to breach the basic structure of the Constitution by permitting the State to make special provisions, including reservation, based on economic criteria?

            2- whether it can be said to breach the basic structure of the Constitution by permitting the State to make special provisions in relation to admission to private unaided institutions

            3- whether it can be said to breach the basic structure of the Constitution in excluding the SEBCs (Socially and Educationally Backward Classes)/OBCs (Other Backward Classes)/SCs (Scheduled Castes)/STs (Scheduled Tribes) from the scope of EWS reservation

            Four issues had drafted by Attorney General for the bench, The bench considered first three issues which arise in this matter. It has fixed September 13 to commence hearing arguments of the different sides in the matter.

            PoojaSingh Recently a petition was filed about 103rd amendment act before a constitutional bench led by CJI U.U. Lalit.
            Reservation addresses structural inequality and is not a means to become financially well-off. The purpose of reservation is to provide representation or empowerment to classes of people who were historically denied access to education and employment. Benefits of reservation cannot be given solely on the basis of economic criterion, they argued
            Reservation can be a moral Hazard
            Poverty in the forward classes can also be due to “poor personal wealth management”. Reservation on the basis of economic criterion creates a “moral hazard” - a gambler who lost all his money cannot be made eligible for reservation.
            Most importantly., Dr. Gopal said the 103rd Constitutional Amendment, which introduced the 10% EWS quota, was a “fraud on the Constitution”.

                Shubhamchaudhary
                The first amendment’s caste-based reservation is covered by the 103rd amendment. Reservation depends on two wings social and educational backwardness and if they are taken away, it would collapse.
                But according to the current interpretation of the 103rd Amendment, only the poorest members of the forward classes are eligible for EWS quota, not the backward classes.

                  Fair and practical ways to help needy person from each community through reservation is a good step but there is an issue regarding the reservation benefits which mean most of the people who are not under the category of reservation also get the benefits by making the certificate of reservation in a fraud manner I think the process of reservation should filter the truly economically deprived individuals and bring them all to justice…..👍

                    Nidhi
                    Yes I also do agree. Benefit of reservation is not enjoy by the most of the people for whom it had been come in force. Most of the people misuse the reservation for their personal benefit even they are not eligible. As per 103 Constitutional Amendment Act, 2019 we have some eligible criteria to get the benefit of 10% reservation for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS). They should be followed strictly by the people and GOI for approving the EWS certificate. For giving reservation to EWS or any other classes, criteria should be applied strictly because of this we will see that the benefit of reservation will practised by the people whom it needed most.

                      Recently, while hearing of the case on authenticity and legal perspective of EWS quota, many points have been recognized. Attorney­ General of India K.K. Venugopal submitted before a Constitution Bench led by Chief Justice of India U.U. Lalit on Tuesday that the 10% quota for economically weaker sections (EWS) of society does not erode the rights of the Scheduled Castes, the Scheduled Tribes or the Other Backward Classes, . Mr. Venugopal, for the Centre, said the EWS quota was given independent of the already existing 50% reservation granted for the backward classes, that is, the Scheduled communities and the OBCs. The top law officer rejected arguments by petitioners that the exclusion of backward classes from the EWS quota amounted to discrimination. “So far as the SCs and STs are concerned, they have been loaded with benefits by way of affirmative actions.
