And it's a misconception that all reserved catrgory candidates pass with lower cutoff; a survey showed that most of them score the general cut-off score.

I did not say it is the only reason. The topic being discussed was why NRIs didn't come out supporting India the way non resident Paks did. That was the context. The reasons mentioned were pretty good , but they don't really explain everything nor are the only reasons because as you see all those reasons apply to NRPs as well yet they came out quite strongly vocal about their homeland yet it didn't affect their image at all. So no, maintaining a professional image is not the only reason , if it was at all a factor.

We need to face the truth that NRIs don't care about India the way NRPs care about Pak. Plus, the companies even applaud the NR Pakistanis for standing up for their homeland. NRIs just don't want to do it mostly. Theydwant to play it safe , many even don't want to have anything to do with the country they left . If we look away from this picture , then how can we call ourselves clear minded while calling Paks delusional and brain washed ?

Also, not all non resident Indians work at big corporations that they have to maintain a certain image . Many run small businesses like travel agencies , craft shop , restaurants etc. They were totally mum and diffident in this matter. I checked the Facebook profile of many of them , most didn't even mention the situation at all and some came out preaching for peace efforts even ! No wonder Pak was at a better position in terms of narrative war globally , at least at the beginning.

It's a complex situation with neither one single reason behind this mentality nor is there one single easy full proof solution to it. Complex issues hardly do. Which is why I feel so frustrated when I read people at social media suggesting juvenile one point solutions to complex internal and external problems.

The reason I mentioned is just one of them. Ofcourse it doesn't apply to every NRI situation. There are people who shifted there not due to lack of opportunity, but because they got a better one abroad or they simply wanted to shift abroad for personal reasons. Plus, obviously my point doesn't apply to non UR NRIs.

But it is definitely one of the reasons. I didn't even come up with it. URs running off to abroad because they're aware of their hopeless future in the country is being discussed heavily across sm platforms.

As for your last point , ofcourse there are brainy reserved category students. God doesn't distribute brain based on caste , does he ? But you're not looking at ground reality if you think a non ur student and a ur student achieves the same academic success with even comparable marks.

hey i take offense at that…no really im ok lol 😅 im a nri (i miss india though…) n i have been pretty vocal…people i know have been pretty vocal…if we are talking about kids of nris who are citizens of other countries, i cant say for sure…some might n some might not…now if we are talking about global ceo who are nri then im not answerable for them…they should but by this time they are probably citizens of usa so they cant pledge allegiance to india Otherwise they will be in trouble

And guess what minionite came running to help her out. She wiped out all the evidence by deleting entire thread and banning me.

Can anyone understand the unholy nexus between clochette and moderator where they are going out of their way to please paki members to this extent???

I have always kept my silence on moderation despite their blatant unfairness...

But now enough is enough

No amount of banning can determine me from calling them out openly.

When they are being so Shameless in their partiality towards pakis why should I take it silently???


Yup. Same pattern with me. So I know exactly what you saying.

Yes im on social media and im very much aware of how things work. I have already seen how people mock converts and how, in turn, they retaliate. Obviously many of them arent even on social media, so the ones who retaliate cant all be labeled as ricebags. Then tell me, is it fair for people of our own religion to call them that, especially when they arent even online to defend themselves??

Whenever there is any indian christian, related reel, the comment section is full of mockery, people calling them ricebags. Why?? What gives anyone the right to mock them??

And before you answer that, let me ask, Why do people convert to christianity for something as basic as 5kg of rice?? Isnt the answer simple?? They are forced to convert because they cant even afford food, often due to the deep rooted discrimination they face in our society.

Now im not saying converts are flawless but comparing them to jihadis is just ridiculous. Have christian converts ever carried out terrorist attacks?? No. Then how are they even comparable to jihadis??
And regarding the argument that they are hateful towards hindus, lets be honest, are hindus not hateful toward them too?? If not, then why do we mock them every chance we get??
Even if they do show hate, isnt it somewhat understandable given the discrimination they have faced?? Lets talk about why hindus mock them in the first place. Hate doesnt come from one side only, taali ek haath se nahi bajti.

From what i have seen in reels, its never the converts who initiate hate in the comments. They usually retaliate only after being mocked and labeled as ricebags. The mockery starts with our people.

As for the claim that they remain backward even after converting, do you really think people who cant even afford rice will care about social status before converting?? Their priority is survival. They are not thinking about whether they will become upper class or remain lower class, they are just trying to feed themselves and their families.

I fully agree the point about those who convert poor, backward people do it for their own gain and they are often funded by foreigners. But lets look at ourselves, why do these people even feel the need to convert?? The answer is simple, discrimination.
If they werent facing discrimination in our society, why would they ever feel the need to leave their religion?? Nobody willingly leaves their faith unless they are brainwashed by islamic extremists or they are so oppressed that they see no other way.

If we cant even accept the truth about the problems in our society and instead just blame the converts or those who converted them, how are we ever going to address the root cause??
The real problem is caste based discrimination in our society. Until we face that reality, conversions will keep happening. And the fact that you are only blaming them and playing the victim card says a lot.
Im from an upper caste hindu background myself but im very aware of where this problem starts and i understand it better than you seem to. If you want to keep that blindfold on, go ahead, no one is stopping you. But dont be rude to others when i havent even been disrespectful to you.
If you still want to be rude, go do it elsewhere. Otherwise, i have the option to report you.

You said the government gives them housing, toilets, water, ration, electricity and schools then why are so many people still living in slums or on the streets??
Sure, 5kg of rice wont change their lifestyle but it will fill their stomachs for atleast few days.

You dont need to tell me who i should or shouldnt sympathize with. Just worry about yourself.
Yes upper caste people are also suffering but not because of caste discrimination. The lower castes are suffering from that, so there is a difference between their struggles and ours.
No one is asking upper caste people to take care of every lower caste individual. But the least they can do is stop caste based discrimination, that alone would go a long way in solving hunger and poverty.

And if even that is too much for them to do, then yes, if someone from a lower caste converts for just 5kg of rice, i believe its justified. Neither i nor anyone else has the right to judge them for doing what they need to survive.
I can definitely blame missionaries for taking advantage of their poverty and i can also blame upper caste for maintaining discriminatory systems but if someone is converting just to fill their stomach who am i to stop or blame them??

So please, step out of your victimhood bubble and look at the real reasons why people are suffering.
Unless and until we ourselves are willing to recognize and fix the root problem, this issue will never go away.

I took some time to read all of y’all’s posts on this topic I wish I had time to write it’s an issue that should be discussed and acted upon by the govt for sure if I get time one of these days I will join on this topic of reservations and casteism.

I really enjoyed everyone’s discussion on casteism and reservations so here are my thoughts.

What is the genesis of this?

It started (like most ideas) with a good intention of helping bridge the socio-economic divide. Casteism did exist then and sadly exists today (and huge effort by INC to do more instead of eliminate – divide and conquer philosophy)

What happened over time?

Sadly, instead of this helping, it not only did not help but they increased the reservations over time. At a minimum as many of you pointed out, they did not even break the caste-based approach to an economic one.

Worst part is so far they have not had a goal/plan to eliminate this.

Education system in India

Since independence, we know of the absolute horrific governance by INC. They did not develop schools/colleges/medical facilities/libraries and most importantly – an exceptionally strong public school system across India. Interestingly, they did more for govt banks having presence all over the country vs education. If one wants to argue about 4 IITSand IIMs, etc too little that congress put in place, they can stop reading this now.

To have any hope of going to pure meritocracy based system, there needs to be the strongest education system for schools with capacity for every child across the country (K-12).

Economics – Free education – not just tuition, free supplies,uniform, library, meals.

What are the possible solutions?

There are innumerable permutations and combinations.

1. Free schools (govt) and first build them all over the country with free meals. Do you know that a simple incentive of free meals can relieve such a huge burden for the poor to send children to schools?

2. Mandatory training for teachers – Quality does matter

3. Augment with resources to help after school(extra effort), social workers that can help with family issues etc

4. Constant monitoring to identify talent early. Provide a springboard and even more resources to gifted and talented. Extra classes, heck even some boarding resources if needed.

5. Finite plan – This is not something where you rub a genie lamp and solve overnight. If one started tomorrow, think of the youngest kid getting through school after 10 years.

6. Augment primary education with free education till graduation and post graduation. Completely free for economically needy.

7. Plan to eliminate caste based reservations completely (over time).

8. Ensure that post school education does not just offer standard degrees. Community colleges that focus on skill-based education.E.g. plumbing, electrical, auto repair, etc. This can be just 2 years after school that provides for employment based on skills. Not everyone is going to be a doctor/engineer.

9. Ensure vast number of libraries are opened. Provide kids a laptop to use and access to virtual libraries. The conventional library (physical) is not even needed.

10. Provide free transport

11. In fact, ensure that most higher education fields start eliminating reservations sooner than later. One does not need kids with 0-40 / 100 to become engineers and doctors. Imagine what they will bring to society. Hence point 8 above. Remember point 8 brings them incomes to start helping their families and economics sooner than later.

12. Completely eliminate reservations in jobs. Reservations in education should never be extended to jobs.

13. Ensure caste-based approach is eliminated with a definite time limit phased out reductions.

14. Eliminate madraasas – Heck government has ready access to these to convert to main stream schools. Pass a law. Ensure army is ready to face any bs riots even. This will also help integrate society. They can learn about their religion at homes and places of worship.

15. Encourage strong private sector participation.Ambani school is great but its only for the rich. If invited, they and large corporates and rich will chip in from schools, to funds, to resources.

16. Even western countries like US struggle – The public school in a lower income neighborhood does not have the same resources as a school in the richest neighborhood. In fact schools in the richest neighborhoods have expansion budgets of $50-100 million and exceed some of the best private schools in India. The disparity in same city is crazy. Hence, while India can learn from the west, they can avoid the mistakes and also replicate parts that work – e.g. mandatory education for kids in some states and cities.

There is no substitute for meritocracy. At the same time one cannot ignore the practical reality of economics and poverty. There is a vast segment of population that needs economic support and resources for education. As all of you pointed out – there is no place for casteism.

Finally ask yourself the question – What am I doing towards this problem? Did I do anything in the last 12 months for education and do I plan to do anything for this in the next 12. Get involved. Making a small difference in the life of even one under-privileged child is huge. Imagine if 500-1b people took this approach to do something. It can be anything from just their time to help to financial if one can afford it. Helping and making a difference is never just money. In fact, the rich are the ones that never “find time”.

Thanks for the great discussion on this. I am sure above is not comprehensive and I said it is never a one-size-fits-all approach. It is just my 2 cents on the topic.

While I agree with most points you have made, the thing is nobody, atleast no political leader thinks rationally about this caste and reservation anymore. What started as a well intentioned temporary measure to keep in check caste based discrimination has turned into nothing but vote bank politics. It has just been reduced to an election manifesto where all parties are in compitition ki kaun sabse zyada reservation promise karega. They are just competing to increase it just for some votes. For this very reason no one would dare to decrease it. They behave like population ke according reservation dena hai. That was never the case. Reservation was given just to ensure socially backward classes are not completely outcast or left out of these institutions and so that people also start increasingly accept them. Now it has become a matter of bitterness as over the years less and less percentage is left for UR. Voh toh beech mein SC ne bol diya max 50% reservation is allowed isliye yahan tak hi hai varna voh bhi kabka chala jata. Again in that too EWS was brought in. 10% seats again gone down for URsmiley18 it has just become a race for political parties.

Now again caste census is happening. The only reason is to demand more reservation smiley26 why else would anyone want caste based census? No party is actually thinking about doing something different. They should understand that they are driving away many people by doing this

Thanks for the great discussion on this. I am sure above is not comprehensive and I said it is never a one-size-fits-all approach. It is just my 2 cents on the topic.

I really liked most of the possible solution plans you mentioned, except for a few. I mean, is it really possible for the government to provide free education, food, transport and many other things to so many children?? Given the current state of our economy, i dont think thats feasible. In turn, the government might increase taxes, which will only burden us middle class people.

Apart from those points, i believe all your other suggestions are definitely possible.

As i have said in previous posts, reservation policies are now creating more and more division among people of different castes. In past there was rampant discrimination and although it has significantly reduced over time, it still exists. However, it is now the reservation system itself that is fueling further division. In my opinion, people of all castes need to unite and work towards eliminating reservation and caste based divisions altogether. Only then can we hope for a better future.

If we keep crying about problems, for example, i complain about reservation while people from lower castes complain about discrimination, its not going to help. We need to come together. We are living in the era of the AI revolution and casteism and reservation now seem like backward concepts.

The government should provide reservations based solely on economic status. Then it can offer free food, transport and education to genuinely poor children. But providing everything free to all children doesnt seem realistic.

Currently, there are three major problems hindering the growth of our country:

1. The 0.5 Front Enemy: These people do not want our country to progress. They support enemy nations and create internal problems. This is one of the biggest challenges we face today. After Operation Sindoor, i really appreciate how the government has been handling them and i hope this continues in the long term, not just as a short term effect of the operation.

2. Casteism/Reservation: This is another major obstacle to national growth. Eliminating casteism and caste based reservation entirely will help our country progress at a much faster rate. Ending this divide will also put a stop to caste based politics and focus attention on the nation's development.

3. Lack of Civic Sense: The general lack of civic sense among our people also contributes to the country’s slow progress. Its evident everywhere how people disregard civic responsibilities. A nation can only progress when its citizens are disciplined. Japan and china are great examples of this. So, to your long list of potential solutions, i would like to add that mandatory civic education should be introduced from early childhood. If children develop a sense of civic responsibility early on, they will grow up to be more disciplined citizens who contribute positively to national growth.

you misunderstood my point on free education transport and food. It is for the poor. Truth is most of the student in government schools will qualify. Even my driver and cook at home send their children to a private school. So not every kid ! I believe providing free meals and free education to the poor gets the parents incentivized to send their kids to school.

I agree with everything you said on 0.5 , casteism and civic sense. I have myself said this many times in my other posts.

Add to that the fact that majority of Indians are corrupt. They just don’t think they are. They are always readily paying someone off. From cops to train agents as they say it’s a way of life and then blame everyone else for being corrupt.

I didn’t say it’s an easy problem to solve. Also didn’t say it’s just governments problem (is that not the usual cop out of most Indians - blame the govt and criticize it)? Citizens of India can make a direct difference to education as last part of my post said. I do my part. Hence I wrote about it. And I strive to do more.
