People don't need doles, they need an environment where they are not made out to be the "reserved category" guys and girls. It is a shame that we resort to quotas instead of fighting the evil legally and socially. If Kandaswamy or that guy at AIIMS feel that they have been discriminated against because of their castes they should sue (<EM>they should/must be able to</EM>) their institutions and set an example. In fact, instead of quotas, we need a social justice ministry, a social justice law, and even a social justice court to deal with such cases. It should be in our school curriculum that caste discrimination is a shameful phenomenon and we should all shun it<BR/><BR/>Amrit<BR/><A HREF="http://www.writingcave.com" REL="nofollow">Writing Cave</A>Amrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15185098200382864091noreply@blogger.com
