Do you think caste reservation should be ended? Comment below and join the conversation.
As a lower caste person myself, i wondered why they have children and curse their ill fate on innocents. Why have kids?
Reservation doesn't benefit all of sc n st people. Its almost proportionate to their population. There is race in it too. People speak as if all of sc n st get reservation, government jobs n elite colleges😂
Control population. Go abroad if u can. Implement one board one syllabus for the whole country. Improve teacher's quality. Government should take control of all education institutions, shut down private coaching of any kind.
And bloody start raising voices against caste based discrimination, rape, killing and human rights violations. Dont just make noise about reservations.
😂 its a way to being some group in beggor mode by certified
I was SC and i just withdraw the dhabbaa from my name 🎉
This is unequal and wrong thing which make nation wide grouping and not unity in religion but in community allaince by there seperate profitable interest.
In bhatke huey logo ka christjan, muslims daba ke jnke naam kaam kandho ka istemaal karke apni platform or rajnitiya majbuut karte hai, 😂inko lagta hai ki sabkuch in sabhi milawatiyo ka hai but end mey kudaa kachra hata diya jata hai ye wahi dele kuchaile sc st obc milenge 😂
For general students stop preparing for jee and neet and focus on sat to escape the india matrix
It is so simple
India gives seats to reserved people
Other countries give seat to deserved people 🎉
😂 its look like welthy people are begging and get begging amount. Those stuff look good to other community and they wish they also becoming the begors 😂 wana beckme begor however they have everything but those people need its.
50% population will soon comes under SC ST OBC and minority
😂 why dont thats government will give other community the actual benefits, like generals ko bhi sabkuch same ya lagbhag dediya jayega toh sab equal ho jayega 😂 like sabko
😂 they will make there seperate seperate community and also many also making a different religion like ambedkarwaadi most of them not in hindu and Buddhist they think they are a new or skmething different religion 😂.
So its a starting, jn fiture many different small small community living seperately and fighting in community, vlashes and much like Rajput and Gujar, dont take it personal but its reality i heared
Many caste and community is detached permanently from the same religion 😂, they live like backside enemy or pretend like those others are not existing and just avoid seeing them 😂
That should or must be removed even no sc st obc or minority commission is good for nation. Even thats just look like a begor with having lots of money but his habit is begging 😂.
I was sc and make a certificate in 2012 and 2025 january withdraw that and delete from DM.
Thats a way of seperation in a religion in favour of greed of benefits and personal community profits
Thats a disgusting thing in India, todays time and atmosphere not fit in this benefits
Example – in a school suppose a classroom, a teacher like Gov of india. 100 student, 30 will got sc st obc benefits and funds by teacher. Also 15 student also having fun of minority commission. Left 55 😂 they just look the faces. Its like in a school classroom you just give 45 student toffee and 55 is general kids so they dont have 😂.
Also sc st obc got 1 toffee and minority will got 2 toffee, 1st thing minority comes under minority commission and also many of them are also OBC and ST 😂 😂😂 😂 such a nonsense 😂
Sharma talking about caste and reservations…😂😂😂bullshit
Everyone is against the caste system until their children decide to marry outside their caste. Well, said Palki.
Andhbhakts logic is if students from marginalized caste came into system with low marks it will affect indian growth but they don't have any problem to have a prime minister who don't have any education qualifications other than some fake marksheets 😂 A dalit with low marks Shouldn't get into top colleges but Manoj tiwari a bhojpuri singer who has no education qualification can be a minister of delhi ?? 😂 Irony to say that 🤣
As long as caste discrimination is still there, how can reservation end?
If reservation were made for general category people they would have never opposed it…..🙃
Reservation system should always prevail for the people who are always discriminated by the so called upper class🙏
a really important point indeed: the British formalized the cast system

No, every high cast is against reservations and they are "FOR" cast based cultures. Particularly those who failed in their respective fields. If that were the case, you wouldnt have put "sharma" and Upadyay" as your surname.
Shame on you for being a hypocrite!
You dont deserve to be a jurnalist.
Voting shud be allowed only for tax payers or land owners…
then only reservations will end
then what is EWS.
आप कौन जात है❓
Our children will have to prepare themselves to set themselves as per the situation demands. There cannot be marriage or friendship between two unequal groups. Our backward castes, ST and ST will have to raise the economic,social and educational standard to fit themselves to the families and classes they are going to mix up because two opposite cannot last long.Reservtions will play a vital roles. People begin to change their status with the increase of their income. They also change living with sophisticated company which are available at educational institutions, offces and public places.It is means that helps us to reach ends. So we must reserve before we desire.
This is why I never fly Air India … what if the pilot got the job just because of quota ?
There shouldn't be any quota based on race, religion, caste, gender, etc.
The government should try make the playing field equal by investing in education.
There should be financial assistance for the poor of all races, religions, castes, genders, etc.
Caste reservation more problems India

give some data on 10 percent EWS reservation
The UPSC reservation policy ensures representation from various social groups, but the actual on-ground representation of officers from reserved categories can be influenced by several factors. For instance, candidates who joined services before the implementation of OBC reservation are counted as general category. Additionally, concessions in age and attempts for reserved category candidates can result in a higher average age at entry, leading to earlier retirement compared to general category officers. Moreover, a higher job change percentage among reserved category officers could also affect their representation in services. These nuances highlight the complexity of the reservation system and its impact on the workforce composition. It's important to consider these factors when evaluating reports on reservation policy outcomes. Thus, it is untrue from my personal opinion
Lower caste individuals have the option to renounce their caste status if they are willing to forfeit their reservation benefits. Ironically, many choose not to take this step, yet they often express grievances about the upper castes.
Brahmins (who are Jews from Jerusalem that infiltrated india in ad 312 )created caste system. The system is throughly psychopathic . The oldest psychopathic system. Pl do not expect someone who benefits from this system to tell u the truth about the system. Jains , Sharma , varma , chopra , malhotra, kapoor , all telugus and gujrati, are right hands of the Brahmins and pandits.
If you have Hindu friends from lower caste, they tell you it’s such an evil disgusting system. It’s even here in America. Texas and NJ they do it.
Lower caste men should now have guts to marry an upper caste women without any fear and vice versa. That is when we will ensure a casteless society in india.
ONE NATION ONE CASTE
I belong to SC category i totally agree with mam points…… Today reservation is not justce tool it's a political tools where politicians fooled a particular community and they want to always create gap and insecurity between general and sc st for vote bank.
Note : After 75 years of reservation SC ST community couldn't uplift in society huge gap in education, government job and other places…. We should think about and implement should better thing for all society.
Haarsh reality casteism still exists so many cases we can see relevant that thing oppostion government gave opportunity in politics.

Why dont she add ews reservation in pie chart
We request you to cover the political situation in Andhra Pradesh. There are three dominant castes in the state, each contributing to the current unrest.
Kamma: This is the most dominant caste, with its leaders heavily involved in cinema politics. The Kamma community wields significant power, particularly in industries like cinema, real estate, and private sectors such as hospitals, energy, and dairies. The community has occupied large amounts of land under the guise of capital city development and controls four mainstream media outlets, five newspapers, and has a strong social media presence, which is their main strength.
Kapu: Despite making up 85% of the population, the Kapu caste has only been in power for a brief period, having formed a government for just one year. Their prominent leader rose to power in 2009 and is now the Deputy Chief Minister. However, there is criticism that he has allied with the Kamma caste due to shared interests in cinema politics. Although the Kapu caste has been historically sidelined, they are now attempting to strengthen alliances with the Kamma party ahead of 2024.
Reddy: This caste emerged as a counterforce to the Kamma-dominated politics. The Reddy-led government came to power in 2019, but it was rejected by the people in 2024 due to dissatisfaction over job creation and infrastructure development. While the Reddy administration focused heavily on healthcare, poverty alleviation, and social welfare, it was criticized for neglecting other areas such as road infrastructure. There are also allegations of involvement in a sand mafia scandal.
Each of these castes faces allegations of favoritism and corruption. The Kamma government is accused of prioritizing the Kamma community in business and development, while the Reddy government is criticized for mismanaging resources and being overly focused on social welfare at the expense of broader development.
Given the current dynamics, the Kapu caste, which has not had substantial power until now, is working on forming stronger alliances with the Kamma party as they prepare for the next elections.
Mam you should also make video on how castes have shaped indian societies from padt 3k year…..
The only way you destroy Caste is by rejecting the religion and leaving that religion …that has destroyed billion lives generation after generation.
Any human being with common sense and little mind would reject this religion ..
Lot of Hindu’s have already left the religion to other religions..
On the other hand India is not even a country it’s a continent drew by British based on majority religion…
Caste System is Stupid. The pathetic Infrastructure and this Caste System will hold India Back..
The smart move is for the government to give quotas to everyone 😂
“Everyone is against caste system unless it is the matter of marriage”.
Even reservations are removed from education and job people are going to discriminate or come to know about their caste during marriage.
Even if reservations are removed from the education and gov jobs it is still not going to change the nation development scenario.
92% jobs are unorganised sector . 8% are organised among those 5% belongs to private sector and 3% belongs to gov jobs and 1.5% jobs are reserved. Converting 1.5% reserved jobs into general is going to make India super power 😂😂😂.
Focus should be on creating more jobs and colleges rather than doing casteism or also h for more reservations.
Ambedkar was Kejriwal. Who talk against corruption so that he can do it. Ambedkar reverse the Manusmriti. Made Brahmins, Rajput lower class citizens.
India require talent not dumb lower caste
pls make a video on how casteism & attocities on dalits spoiled developmnt of ths country for centuries
One general question to all, 'Who is the authority to certify or confirm one's caste without any local information like declaration of ward councilors or affidavit ? On what basis caste system is formulated? Is there any authentic government document or any scientific test to confirm one's caste like blood group test or DNA test???
Caste system should have ended 60 years after independence why to spend so much money on back wards with out potentialsAll backward should have test before providing. Welfare benefits I gather middle class and rich gets these benefits through the back doors or free education unlill before going to university
