The Indian constitution states that all Indians are equal and have the right of equality. But unfortunately the reality is very bad. Even after years of Independence discrimination still exist with in religion, caste and gender. The reservation system in India was introduced to enhance the disadvantaged sections of society. Seeing this, the constitution makes granted reservation to scheduled caste (SC),scheduled tribes (ST),other backward classes (OBC)and economically backward classes in legislatures. Government jobs promotions and educational scholarships. However it was only valid for 10years but unfortunately it is still prevailing even after years of independence. The Reservation system in India has been working in favour of the people belong to backward classes. However it has led to several disputes in the nation. Especially in surpassing merit , when deserved candidates are unable to get admission or jobs that they deserved , as the seat goes to the candidates belong to reserved category. Reservation brings down the economic growth rate of a country as it reduces the efficiency of its labour. Thus reservations are the exact opposite to development and equality. We dont require reservation on the basis of caste or religion but only to provide support to those who have fewer resources and merit should be equal in admissions as well as job opportunities. Finally I recognise Reservation system is a big problem in my surroundings.
