It was the NDA Government that supported the previous UPA regime's decision to give reservations to the Jats in the Central quota. But the Supreme Court has said that the reservation is not in the public interest. One wonders if ever, a day will come when the politicians will stop playing against people's welfare through vote-bank politics of reservations. All kinds of reservations are, in fact, against the welfare of the country. The decision is just a politically convenient way of taking care of the backward classes.
Reservations have been leading to chaos more than delivering the so-called benefits. It is in the country's interest to abolish reservations of all kinds. Reservations have achieved precious little since independence. For the weaker sections, more and better opportunities must be provided so that they can rise and prosper. Reservations remind people that they are weak and cannot come up in life without support.
