What goes around… comes around!
I was not born when, as literature says, the high caste rulers oppressed, rebuked, and castigated the low caste unfortunates. That it is still prevalent in some places in India, atleast proves that the literature was not completely incorrect. However, I am definitely born in an India where a wave of radical change is taking place. Change for the better? Maybe or maybe not. It depends on which side of the coin we are looking at. Today, the Yadavs, the Mayawatis are riding high. And with the latest Supreme Court judgment, the OBCs along with the SCs/STs will ride even higher. That it will cast doomsday on meritorious students, that it will affect the quality of students produced by the IITs and the IIMs, that it will be detrimental to the productivity of the software giants... is all a matter of speculation and subject to never ending debate,....
