If you thought caste based reservations were a bit too much, now sample this: Tamil Nadu government has announced exclusive reservations for Christians and Muslims in government services and educational institutions. (Link)

As is we have had enough of this dammed reservation happening in all walks of life. Till now we had reservation based on the caste, and now based on religion. Why the hell can’t people compete on merit instead of asking for the crutches of reservation. And why are these politicians hell bent on dividing the country on the basis of caste and religion?

So finally some sense has prevailed and the Supreme Court has stayed the central law providing for 27 percent reservation for Other Backward Classes.

Its a good judgement, and hopefully will go a long way in making sure that merit and not caste is the deciding factor for admission in institutions of higher education.
