Reservation policy has become a clear tool for both mobilization.
Earlier this month the union government enacted a law to provide 10% reservation to economically weaker section of communities hit her toe not entitled to this benefit. that the Bharatiya Janata party has done this with the next Lok Sabha election in mind is beyond doubt. That most other parties did not use the move due to political consideration is also clear.
Whether or not the move passes the screen ATI of the supreme court will have to be seen.
What is already evident how far is the Domino effect this mob has had across the country. the Gujarat government has announced that benefit of e w s Kota Raj will not be given to those who have settled in the state after 1978.
the Andhra Pradesh government has said that it will come out half of the 10% e w s Kota for the Kapu sub caste.
Tejashree Jadhav from the Rashtriya Janata Dal HD Wonder That reservation be increased to 90%.
The pattern is clear reservation policy has become a useful for the boat mobilization other than a corrective mechanism for the backwardness due to historical discrimination. political parties have more than demonstrated that this kind of political has scant regard for the constitutional principle or judgement of the supreme court.
This is a dangerous trend. a functional democracy cannot outsource the responsibility of preserving basic constitutional proprietary to the Judiciary while political parties go around sub diverting it. this is not to say that reservation policy has to be cast in stone how are any big departure from such a policy should at least begin with a detailed assessment of facts.
last but not least is the concerned that implementing reservation is for more Complex than announcing it. As more and more categories of reservation or added search complexities about to increase. the announcement of reservation for a ws7 upper caste might have reduced the stigma which was attached with beneficiaries of reservation but it is likely to father 58 the political around the reservation.
